Design-by-Contract for Flexible Multiparty Session Protocols (Artifact)

Authors: Lorenzo Gheri, Ivan Lanese, Neil Sayers, Emilio Tuosto, and Nobuko Yoshida

Published in: DARTS, Volume 8, Issue 2, Special Issue of the 36th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2022)

Abstract
We introduce CAScr, the first implementation of Scribble (http://www.scribble.org, https://nuscr.dev/) that relies on choreography automata, for deadlock-free distributed programming. CAScr supports the main theoretical results and constructions in the related article. CAScr takes the popular top-down approach to system development, based on choreographic models, following the original methodology of Scribble and multiparty session types. The top-down approach enables correctness-by-construction: a developer provides a global description for the whole communication protocol; by projecting the global protocol, APIs are generated from local CFSMs, which ensure the safe implementation of each participant. The theory of choreography automata in the related article guarantees deadlock freedom for the distributed implementation of flexible global protocols. We target web development, supporting in particular the TypeScript programming language.

Design-By-Contract for Flexible Multiparty Session Protocols

Authors: Lorenzo Gheri, Ivan Lanese, Neil Sayers, Emilio Tuosto, and Nobuko Yoshida

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 222, 36th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP 2022)

Abstract
Choreographic models support a correctness-by-construction principle in distributed programming. Also, they enable the automatic generation of correct message-based communication patterns from a global specification of the desired system behaviour. In this paper we extend the theory of choreography automata, a choreographic model based on finite-state automata, with two key features. First, we allow participants to act only in some of the scenarios described by the choreography automaton. While this seems natural, many choreographic approaches in the literature, and choreography automata in particular, forbid this behaviour. Second, we equip communications with assertions constraining the values that can be communicated, enabling a design-by-contract approach. We provide a toolchain allowing to exploit the theory above to generate APIs for TypeScript web programming. Programs communicating via the generated APIs follow, by construction, the prescribed communication pattern and are free from communication errors such as deadlocks.
