On the I/O Complexity of the Cocke-Younger-Kasami Algorithm and of a Family of Related Dynamic Programming Algorithms

Authors: Lorenzo De Stefani and Vedant Gupta

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 349, 19th International Symposium on Algorithms and Data Structures (WADS 2025)

Abstract
Asymptotically tight lower bounds are derived for the Input/Output (I/O) complexity of a class of dynamic programming algorithms, including matrix chain multiplication, optimal polygon triangulation, and the construction of optimal binary search trees. Assuming no recomputation of intermediate values, we establish an Ω(n³/(√M B)) I/O lower bound, where n denotes the size of the input and M denotes the size of the available fast memory (cache). When recomputation is allowed, we show that the same bound holds for M < cn, where c is a positive constant. In the case where M ≥ 2n, we show an Ω(n/B) I/O lower bound. We also discuss algorithms for which the number of executed I/O operations matches asymptotically each of the presented lower bounds, which are thus asymptotically tight. Additionally, we refine our general method to obtain a lower bound for the I/O complexity of the Cocke-Younger-Kasami algorithm, where the size of the grammar impacts the I/O complexity. An upper bound with asymptotically matching performance in many cases is also provided.

Vehicle: Bridging the Embedding Gap in the Verification of Neuro-Symbolic Programs (Invited Talk)

Authors: Matthew L. Daggitt, Wen Kokke, Robert Atkey, Ekaterina Komendantskaya, Natalia Slusarz, and Luca Arnaboldi

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 337, 10th International Conference on Formal Structures for Computation and Deduction (FSCD 2025)

Abstract
Neuro-symbolic programs, i.e. programs containing both machine learning components and traditional symbolic code, are becoming increasingly widespread. Finding a general methodology for verifying such programs is challenging due to both the number of different tools involved and the intricate interface between the "neural" and "symbolic" program components. In this paper we present a general decomposition of the neuro-symbolic verification problem into parts, and examine the problem of the embedding gap that occurs when one tries to combine proofs about the neural and symbolic components. To address this problem we then introduce Vehicle - standing as an abbreviation for a "verification condition language" - an intermediate programming language interface between machine learning frameworks, automated theorem provers, and dependently-typed formalisations of neuro-symbolic programs. Vehicle allows users to specify the properties of the neural components of neuro-symbolic programs once, and then safely compile the specification to each interface using a tailored typing and compilation procedure. We give a high-level overview of Vehicle’s overall design, its interfaces and compilation & type-checking procedures, and then demonstrate its utility by formally verifying the safety of a simple autonomous car controlled by a neural network, operating in a stochastic environment with imperfect information.

Chain of Grounded Objectives: Concise Goal-Oriented Prompting for Code Generation

Authors: Sangyeop Yeo, Seung-Won Hwang, and Yu-Seung Ma

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)

Abstract
The use of Large Language Models (LLMs) for code generation has gained significant attention in recent years. Existing methods often aim to improve the quality of generated code by incorporating additional contextual information or guidance into input prompts. Many of these approaches adopt process-oriented reasoning strategies, mimicking human-like step-by-step thinking; however, they may not always align with the structured nature of programming languages. This paper introduces Chain of Grounded Objectives (CGO), a concise goal-oriented prompting approach that embeds functional objectives into prompts to enhance code generation. By focusing on precisely defined objectives rather than explicit procedural steps, CGO aligns more naturally with programming tasks while retaining flexibility. Empirical evaluations on HumanEval, MBPP, their extended versions, and LiveCodeBench show that CGO achieves accuracy comparable to or better than existing methods while using fewer tokens, making it a more efficient approach to LLM-based code generation.

Bottom-Up Synthesis of Memory Mutations with Separation Logic

Authors: Kasra Ferdowsi and Hila Peleg

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 333, 39th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2025)

Abstract
Programming-by-Example (PBE) is the paradigm of program synthesis specified via input-output pairs. It is commonly used because examples are easy to provide and collect from the environment. A popular optimization for enumerative synthesis with examples is Observational Equivalence (OE), which groups programs into equivalence classes according to their evaluation on example inputs. Current formulations of OE, however, are severely limited by the assumption that the synthesizer’s target language contains only pure components with no side-effects, either enforcing this in their target language, or ignoring it, leading to an incorrect enumeration. This limits their ability to use realistic component sets. We address this limitation by borrowing from Separation Logic, which can compositionally reason about heap mutations. We reformulate PBE using a restricted Separation Logic: Concrete Heap Separation Logic (CHSL), transforming the search for programs into a proof search in CHSL. This lets us perform bottom-up enumerative synthesis without the need for expert-provided annotations or domain-specific inferences, but with three key advantages: we (i) preserve correctness in the presence of memory-mutating operations, (ii) compact the search space by representing many concrete programs as one under CHSL, and (iii) perform a provably correct OE-reduction. We present SObEq (Side-effects in OBservational EQuivalence), a bottom-up enumerative algorithm that, given a PBE task, searches for its CHSL derivation. The SObEq algorithm is proved correct with no purity assumptions: we show it is guaranteed to lose no solutions. We also evaluate our implementation of SObEq on benchmarks from the literature and online sources, and show that it produces high-quality results quickly.

Leveraging Sequential Computation for Programming Efficient and Reliable Distributed Systems

Authors: Ivan Kuraj and Armando Solar-Lezama

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 71, 2nd Summit on Advances in Programming Languages (SNAPL 2017)

Abstract
While sequential programs represent a simple and natural form for expressing functionality, corresponding distributed implementations get considerably more complex. We examine the possibility of using the sequential computation model for programming distributed systems and requirements for making that possible. The benefits of such an approach include easier specification and reasoning about behaviors in the system, as well as a possibility to directly reuse existing techniques for checking correctness and optimization of sequential programs to produce efficient and reliable distributed implementations.

Bridging the Gap Between General-Purpose and Domain-Specific Compilers with Synthesis

Authors: Alvin Cheung, Shoaib Kamil, and Armando Solar-Lezama

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 32, 1st Summit on Advances in Programming Languages (SNAPL 2015)

Abstract
This paper describes a new approach to program optimization that allows general purpose code to benefit from the optimization power of domain-specific compilers. The key to this approach is a synthesis-based technique to raise the level of abstraction of general-purpose code to enable aggressive domain-specific optimizations. We have been implementing this approach in an extensible system called Herd. The system is designed around a collection of parameterized kernel translators. Each kernel translator is associated with a domain-specific compiler, and the role of each kernel translator is to scan the input code in search of code fragments that can be optimized by the domain-specific compiler embedded within each kernel translator. By leveraging general synthesis technology, it is possible to have a generic kernel translator that can be specialized by compiler developers for each domain-specific compiler, making it easy to build new domain knowledge into the overall system. We illustrate this new approach to build optimizing compilers in two different domains, and highlight research challenges that need to be addressed in order to achieve the ultimate vision.
