Unreliability in Practical Subclasses of Communicating Systems

Authors: Amrita Suresh and Nobuko Yoshida

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 360, 45th IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (FSTTCS 2025)

Abstract
Systems of communicating automata are prominent models for peer-to-peer message-passing over unbounded channels, but in the general scenario, most verification properties are undecidable. To address this issue, two decidable subclasses, Realisable with Synchronous Communication (RSC) and k-Multiparty Compatibility (k-MC), were proposed in the literature, with corresponding verification tools developed and applied in practice. Unfortunately, both RSC and k-MC are not resilient under failures: (1) their decidability relies on the assumption of perfect channels and (2) most standard protocols do not satisfy RSC or k-MC under failures. To address these limitations, this paper studies the resilience of RSC and k-MC under two distinct failure models: interference and crash-stop failures. For interference, we relax the conditions of RSC and k-MC and prove that the inclusions of these relaxed properties remain decidable under interference, preserving their known complexity bounds. We then propose a novel crash-handling communicating system that captures wider behaviours than existing multiparty session types (MPST) with crash-stop failures. We study a translation of MPST with crash-stop failures into this system integrating RSC and k-MC properties, and establish their decidability results. Finally, by verifying representative protocols from the literature using RSC and k-MC tools extended to interferences, we evaluate the relaxed systems and demonstrate their resilience.

Barendregt’s Theory of the λ-Calculus, Refreshed and Formalized

Authors: Adrienne Lancelot, Beniamino Accattoli, and Maxime Vemclefs

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Barendregt’s book on the untyped λ-calculus refines the inconsistent view of β-divergence as representation of the undefined via the key concept of head reduction. In this paper, we put together recent revisitations of some key theorems laid out in Barendregt’s book, and we formalize them in the Abella proof assistant. Our work provides a compact and refreshed presentation of the core of the book. The formalization faithfully mimics pen-and-paper proofs. Two interesting aspects are the manipulation of contexts for the study of contextual equivalence and a formal alternative to the informal trick at work in Takahashi’s proof of the genericity lemma. As a by-product, we obtain an alternative definition of contextual equivalence that does not mention contexts.

Animating MRBNFs: Truly Modular Binding-Aware Datatypes in Isabelle/HOL

Authors: Jan van Brügge, Andrei Popescu, and Dmitriy Traytel

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Nominal Isabelle provides powerful tools for meta-theoretic reasoning about syntax of logics or programming languages, in which variables are bound. It has been instrumental to major verification successes, such as Gödel’s incompleteness theorems. However, the existing tooling is not compositional. In particular, it does not support nested recursion, linear binding patterns, or infinitely branching syntax. These limitations are fundamental in the way nominal datatypes and functions on them are constructed within Nominal Isabelle. Taking advantage of recent theoretical advancements that overcome these limitations through a modular approach using the concept of map-restricted bounded natural functor (MRBNF), we develop and implement a new definitional package for binding-aware datatypes in Isabelle/HOL, called MrBNF. We describe the journey from the user specification to the end-product types, constants and theorems the tool generates. We validate MrBNF in two formalization case studies that so far were out of reach of nominal approaches: (1) Mazza’s isomorphism between the finitary and the infinitary affine λ-calculus, and (2) the POPLmark 2B challenge, which involves non-free binders for linear pattern matching.

Certified Implementability of Global Multiparty Protocols

Authors: Elaine Li and Thomas Wies

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 352, 16th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2025)

Abstract
Implementability is the decision problem at the heart of top-down approaches to protocol verification. In this paper, we present a mechanization of a recently proposed precise implementability characterization by Li et al. for a large class of protocols that subsumes many existing formalisms in the literature. Our protocols and implementations model asynchronous commmunication, and can exhibit infinite behavior. We improve upon their pen-and-paper results by unifying distinct formalisms, simplifying existing proof arguments, elaborating on the construction of canonical implementations, and even uncovering a subtle bug in the semantics for infinite words. As a corollary of our mechanization, we show that the original characterization of implementability applies even to protocols with infinitely many participants. We also contribute a reusable library for reasoning about generic communicating state machines. Our mechanization consists of about 15k lines of Rocq code. We believe that our mechanization can provide the foundation for deductively proving the implementability of protocols beyond the reach of prior work, extracting certified implementations for finite protocols, and investigating implementability under alternative asynchronous communication models.

Abstract Subtyping for Asynchronous Multiparty Sessions

Authors: Laura Bocchi, Andy King, Maurizio Murgia, and Simon Thompson

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)

Abstract
Session subtyping answers the question of whether a program in a communicating system can be safely substituted for another, when their communication behaviour is described by session types. Asynchronous session subtyping is undecidable, even for two participants, hence the interest in sound, but incomplete, subtyping algorithms. Asynchronous multiparty subtyping can be formulated by decomposing session types into single input and output types which preclude, respectively, external and internal choice. This paper shows how abstract interpretation can sit atop this approach and how it leads to an algorithm that can prove subtyping for intricate communication patterns.

A Sound and Complete Characterization of Fair Asynchronous Session Subtyping

Authors: Mario Bravetti, Luca Padovani, and Gianluigi Zavattaro

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 348, 36th International Conference on Concurrency Theory (CONCUR 2025)

Abstract
Session types are abstractions of communication protocols enabling the static analysis of message-passing processes. Refinement notions for session types are key to support safe forms of process substitution while preserving their compatibility with the rest of the system. Recently, a fair refinement relation for asynchronous session types has been defined allowing the anticipation of message outputs with respect to an unbounded number of message inputs. This refinement is useful to capture common patterns in communication protocols that take advantage of asynchrony. However, while the semantic (à la testing) definition of such refinement is straightforward, its characterization has proved to be quite challenging. In fact, only a sound but not complete characterization is known so far. In this paper we close this open problem by presenting a sound and complete characterization of asynchronous fair refinement for session types. We relate this characterization to those given in the literature for synchronous session types by leveraging a novel labelled transition system of session types that embeds their asynchronous semantics.

Multiparty Asynchronous Session Types: A Mechanised Proof of Subject Reduction

Authors: Dawit Tirore, Jesper Bengtson, and Marco Carbone

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

Abstract
Session types offer a type-based approach to describing the message exchange protocols between participants in communication-based systems. Initially, they were introduced in a binary setting, specifying communication patterns between two components. With the advent of multiparty session types (MPST), the typing discipline was extended to arbitrarily many components. In MPST, communication patterns are given in terms of global types, an Alice-Bob notation that gives a global view of how components interact. A central theorem of MPST is subject reduction: a well-typed system remains well-typed after reduction. The literature contains some formulations of MPST with proofs of subject reduction that have later been shown to be incorrect. In this paper, we show that the subject reduction proof of the original formulation of MPST by Honda et al. contains some flaws. Additionally, we provide a restriction to the theory and show that, for this fragment, subject reduction does indeed hold. Finally, we use subject reduction to show that well-typed processes never go wrong. All of our proofs are mechanised using the Coq proof assistant.

Fair Termination of Asynchronous Binary Sessions

Authors: Luca Padovani and Gianluigi Zavattaro

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

Abstract
We study a theory of asynchronous session types ensuring that well-typed processes terminate under a suitable fairness assumption. Fair termination entails starvation freedom and orphan message freedom namely that all messages, including those that are produced early taking advantage of asynchrony, are eventually consumed. The theory is based on a novel fair asynchronous subtyping relation for session types that is coarser than the existing ones. The type system is also the first of its kind that is firmly rooted in linear logic: fair asynchronous subtyping is incorporated as a natural generalization of the cut and axiom rules of linear logic and asynchronous communication is modeled through a suitable set of commuting conversions and of deep cut reductions in linear logic proofs.

Contrasting Deadlock-Free Session Processes

Authors: Juan C. Jaramillo and Jorge A. Pérez

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

Abstract
Deadlock freedom is a crucial property for message-passing programs. Over the years, several different type systems for concurrent processes that ensure deadlock freedom have been proposed; this diversity raises the question of how they compare. We address this question, considering two type systems not covered in prior work: Kokke et al.’s HCP, a type system based on a linear logic with hypersequents, and Padovani’s priority-based type system for asynchronous processes, dubbed 𝖯. Their distinctive features make formal comparisons relevant and challenging. Our findings are two-fold: (1) the hypersequent setting does not drastically change the class of deadlock-free processes induced by linear logic, and (2) we relate the classes of deadlock-free processes induced by HCP and 𝖯. We prove that our results hold under both synchronous and asynchronous communication. Our results provide new insights into the essential mechanisms involved in statically avoiding deadlocks in concurrency.

Next Generation Protocols for Heterogeneous Systems (Dagstuhl Seminar 24051)

Authors: Stephanie Balzer, Marco Carbone, Roland Kuhn, and Peter Thiemann

Published in: Dagstuhl Reports, Volume 14, Issue 1 (2024)

Abstract
The emergence of new computing systems, like cloud computing, blockchains, and Internet of Things (IoT), replaces the traditional monolithic software hardware stack with a distributed heterogeneous model. This change poses new demands on the programming languages for developing such systems: compositionality, allowing decomposition of a system into smaller, possibly heterogeneous, parts and composition of the individually verified parts into a verified whole, security, asserting end-to-end integrity and confidentiality, quantitative reasoning methods, accounting for timing and probabilistic events, and, as a cross-cutting concern, certification of asserted properties in terms of independently verifiable, machine-checked proofs. Characteristics of this emerging computation model are distribution of the participating entities and message passing as the primary means of communication. Message passing is also the communication model underlying behavioral types and programming languages, making them uniquely fitted for this new application domain. Behavioral types explicitly capture the protocols of message exchange and have a strong theoretical foundation. Recent applications of behavioral types include smart contract languages, information flow control, and machine-checked proofs of safety properties. Although these early explorations are promising, the current state of the art of behavioral types and programming languages lacks a comprehensive account of the above-mentioned demands. This Dagstuhl Seminar aims to gather experts from academia and industry to discuss the use of programming languages tailored to tackle the challenges posed by today’s emerging distributed and heterogeneous computing platforms, e.g., by making use of behavioral types. It will focus on static and possibly dynamic mechanisms to support compositionality, security, quantitative reasoning, and certification.

Abstract
In the last decade, there has been a growing interest in applying AI technologies to implement complex data analytics over data streams. To this end, researchers in various fields have been organising a yearly event called the "Stream Reasoning Workshop" to share perspectives, challenges, and experiences around this topic. In this paper, the previous organisers of the workshops and other community members provide a summary of the main research results that have been discussed during the first six editions of the event. These results can be categorised into four main research areas: The first is concerned with the technological challenges related to handling large data streams. The second area aims at adapting and extending existing semantic technologies to data streams. The third and fourth areas focus on how to implement reasoning techniques, either considering deductive or inductive techniques, to extract new and valuable knowledge from the data in the stream. This summary is written not only to provide a crystallisation of the field, but also to point out distinctive traits of the stream reasoning community. Moreover, it also provides a foundation for future research by enumerating a list of use cases and open challenges, to stimulate others to join this exciting research area.

A Sound and Complete Projection for Global Types

Authors: Dawit Tirore, Jesper Bengtson, and Marco Carbone

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 268, 14th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2023)

Abstract
Multiparty session types is a typing discipline used to write specifications, known as global types, for branching and recursive message-passing systems. A necessary operation on global types is projection to abstractions of local behaviour, called local types. Typically, this is a computable partial function that given a global type and a role erases all details irrelevant to this role. Computable projection functions in the literature are either unsound or too restrictive when dealing with recursion and branching. Recent work has taken a more general approach to projection defining it as a coinductive, but not computable, relation. Our work defines a new computable projection function that is sound and complete with respect to its coinductive counterpart and, hence, equally expressive. All results have been mechanised in the Coq proof assistant.

Kalas: A Verified, End-To-End Compiler for a Choreographic Language

Authors: Johannes Åman Pohjola, Alejandro Gómez-Londoño, James Shaker, and Michael Norrish

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 237, 13th International Conference on Interactive Theorem Proving (ITP 2022)

Abstract
Choreographies are an abstraction for globally describing deadlock-free communicating systems. A choreography can be compiled into multiple endpoints preserving the global behavior, providing a path for concrete system implementations. Of course, the soundness of this approach hinges on the correctness of the compilation function. In this paper, we present a verified compiler for Kalas, a choreographic language. Its machine-checked end-to-end proof of correctness ensures all generated endpoints adhere to the system description, preserving the top-level communication guarantees. This work uses the verified CakeML compiler and Hol4 proof assistant, allowing for concrete executable implementations and statements of correctness at the machine code level for multiple architectures.

Locally Static, Globally Dynamic Session Types for Active Objects

Authors: Reiner Hähnle, Anton W. Haubner, and Eduard Kamburjan

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 86, Recent Developments in the Design and Implementation of Programming Languages (2020)

Abstract
Active object languages offer an attractive trade-off between low-level, preemptive concurrency and fully distributed actors: syntactically identifiable atomic code segments and asynchronous calls are the basis of cooperative concurrency, still permitting interleaving, but nevertheless being mechanically analyzable. The challenge is to reconcile local static analysis of atomic segments with the global scheduling constraints it depends on. Here, we propose an approximate, hybrid approach; At compile-time we perform a local static analysis: later, any run not complying to a global specification is excluded via runtime checks. That specification is expressed in a type-theoretic language inspired by session types. The approach reverses the usual (first global, then local) order of analysis and, thereby, supports analysis of open distributed systems.
