Featherweight Java: A Minimal Core Calculus for Java and GJ

by Atsushi Igarashi, Benjamin C. Pierce, Philip Wadler - ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems , 1999
"... Several recent studies have introduced lightweight versions of Java: reduced languages in which complex features like threads and reflection are dropped to enable rigorous arguments about key properties such as type safety. We carry this process a step further, omitting almost all features of the fu ..."

computational “feel, ” providing classes, methods, fields, inheritance, and dynamic typecasts with a semantics closely following Java’s. A proof of type safety for Featherweight Java thus illustrates many of the interesting features of a safety proof for the full language, while remaining pleasingly compact

Scalable molecular dynamics with NAMD.

by James C Phillips , Rosemary Braun , Wei Wang , James Gumbart , Emad Tajkhorshid , Elizabeth Villa , Christophe Chipot , Robert D Skeel , Laxmikant Kalé , Klaus Schulten - J Comput Chem , 2005
"... Abstract: NAMD is a parallel molecular dynamics code designed for high-performance simulation of large biomolecular systems. NAMD scales to hundreds of processors on high-end parallel platforms, as well as tens of processors on low-cost commodity clusters, and also runs on individual desktop and la ..."

Preliminary design of jml: a behavioral interface specification language for java

by Gary T Leavens , Albert L Baker , Clyde Ruby - SIGSOFT Softw. Eng. Notes
"... Abstract JML is a behavioral interface specification language tailored to Java(TM). Besides pre-and postconditions, it also allows assertions to be intermixed with Java code; these aid verification and debugging. JML is designed to be used by working software engineers; to do this it follows Eiffel ..."

conditions. This paper discusses the goals of JML, the overall approach, and describes the basic features of the language through examples. It is intended for readers who have some familiarity with both Java and behavioral specification using pre-and postconditions.

Sequential Monte Carlo Methods for Dynamic Systems

by Jun S. Liu, Rong Chen - Journal of the American Statistical Association , 1998
"... A general framework for using Monte Carlo methods in dynamic systems is provided and its wide applications indicated. Under this framework, several currently available techniques are studied and generalized to accommodate more complex features. All of these methods are partial combinations of three ..."

Valgrind: A framework for heavyweight dynamic binary instrumentation

by Nicholas Nethercote, Julian Seward - In Proceedings of the 2007 Programming Language Design and Implementation Conference , 2007
"... Dynamic binary instrumentation (DBI) frameworks make it easy to build dynamic binary analysis (DBA) tools such as checkers and profilers. Much of the focus on DBI frameworks has been on performance; little attention has been paid to their capabilities. As a result, we believe the potential of DBI ha ..."

Nominal Rigidities and the Dynamic Effects of a Shock to Monetary Policy

by Lawrence J. Christiano, Martin Eichenbaum, Charles L. Evans , 2003
"... We present a model embodying moderate amounts of nominal rigidities that accounts for the observed inertia in inflation and persistence in output. The key features of our model are those that prevent a sharp rise in marginal costs after an expansionary shock to monetary policy. Of these features, th ..."

Model checking and abstraction

by Peter J. Clarke, Djuradj Babich, Tariq M. King, B. M. Golam Kibria - ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems , 1994
"... software developers are using the Java language as the language of choice on many applications. This is due to the effective use of the object-oriented (OO) paradigm to develop large software projects and the ability of the Java language to support the increasing use of web technologies in business ..."

applications. The recent release of the Java version 5.0 has further increased its popularity due to the inclusion of new features that exist in other OO languages. The transition from Java 1.4.x to Java 1.5.x has provided the programmer with more flexibility when implementing programs in Java. In this paper

Jflow: Practical mostly-static information flow control.

by Andrew C Myers - In Proceedings of the 26th ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT symposium on Principles of programming languages, , 1999
"... Abstract A promising technique for protecting privacy and integrity of sensitive data is to statically check information flow within programs that manipulate the data. While previous work has proposed programming language extensions to allow this static checking, the resulting languages are too res ..."

In this paper, we describe the new language JFlow, an extension to the Java language that adds statically-checked information flow annotations. JFlow provides several new features that make information flow checking more flexible and convenient than

An Overview of AspectJ

by Gregor Kiczales, Erik Hilsdale, Jim Hugunin, Mik Kersten, Jeffrey Palm, William G. Griswold , 2001
"... AspectJ-TM is a simple and practical aspect-oriented extension to Java-TM. With just a few new constructs, AspectJ provides support for modular implementation of a range of crosscutting concerns. In AspectJ's dynamic join point model, join points are well-defined points in the execution of the ..."

A Survey of Program Slicing Techniques

by F. Tip - JOURNAL OF PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES , 1995
"... A program slice consists of the parts of a program that (potentially) affect the values computed at some point of interest, referred to as a slicing criterion. The task of computing program slices is called program slicing. The original definition of a program slice was presented by Weiser in 197 ..."

, whereas the latter relies on some specific test case. Procedures, arbitrary control flow, composite datatypes and pointers, and interprocess communication each require a specific solution. We classify static and dynamic slicing methods for each of these features, and compare their accuracy
