Behavioural type systems, usually associated to concurrent or distributed computations, encompass concepts such as interfaces, communication protocols, and contracts, in addition to the traditional input/output operations. The behavioural type of a software component specifies its expected patterns of interaction using expressive type languages, so types can be used to determine automatically whether the component interacts correctly with other components. Two related important notions of behavioural types are those of session types and behavioural contracts. This article surveys the main accomplishments of the last 20 years within these two approaches.

Foundations of Session Types and Behavioural Contracts

This paper describes Kilim, a framework that employs a combination of techniques to help create robust, massively concurrent systems in mainstream languages such as Java: (i) ultra-lightweight, cooperatively-scheduled threads (actors), (ii) a message-passing framework (no shared memory, no locks) and (iii) isolation-aware messaging.

Isolation is achieved by controlling the shape and ownership of mutable messages --- they must not have internal aliases and can only be owned by a single actor at a time. We demonstrate a static analysis built around isolation type qualifiers to enforce these constraints.

Kilim comfortably scales to handle hundreds of thousands of actors and messages on modest hardware. It is fast as well --- task-switching is 1000x faster than Java threads and 60x faster than other lightweight tasking frameworks, and message-passing is 3x faster than Erlang (currently the gold standard for concurrency-orientedprogramming).

Kilim: Isolation-Typed Actors for Java

An unsatisfiable set of constraints is minimal if all its (strict) subsets are satisfiable. The task of type error diagnosis requires finding all minimal unsatisfiable subsets of a given set of constraints (representing an error), in order to generate the best explanation of the error. Similarly circuit error diagnosis requires finding all minimal unsatisfiable subsets in order to make minimal diagnoses. In this paper we present a new approach for efficiently determining all minimal unsatisfiable sets for any kind of constraints. Our approach makes use of the duality that exists between minimal unsatisfiable constraint sets and maximal satisfiable constraint sets. We show how to incrementally compute both these sets, using the fact that the complements of the maximal satisfiable constraint sets are the hitting sets of the minimal unsatisfiable constraint sets. We experimentally compare our technique to the best known method on a number of large type problems and show that considerable improvements in running time are obtained.

Discovery of minimal unsatisfiable subsets of constraints using hitting set dualization

We propose a new verification method for temporal properties of higher-order functional programs, which takes advantage of Ong's recent result on the decidability of the model-checking problem for higher-order recursion schemes (HORS's). A program is transformed to an HORS that generates a tree representing all the possible event sequences of the program, and then the HORS is model-checked. Unlike most of the previous methods for verification of higher-order programs, our verification method is sound and complete. Moreover, this new verification framework allows a smooth integration of abstract model checking techniques into verification of higher-order programs. We also present a type-based verification algorithm for HORS's. The algorithm can deal with only a fragment of the properties expressed by modal mu-calculus, but the algorithm and its correctness proof are (arguably) much simpler than those of Ong's game-semantics-based algorithm. Moreover, while the HORS model checking problem is n-EXPTIME in general, our algorithm is linear in the size of HORS, under the assumption that the sizes of types and specification formulas are bounded by a constant.

Types and higher-order recursion schemes for verification of higher-order programs

Previous methods have generally identified the location of a type error as a particular program point or the program subtree rooted at that point. We present a new approach that identifies the location of a type error as a set of program points (a slice) all of which are necessary for the type error. We identify the criteria of completeness and minimality for type error slices. We discuss the advantages of complete and minimal type error slices over previous methods of presenting type errors. We present and prove the correctness of algorithms for finding complete and minimal type error slices for implicitly typed higher-order languages like Standard ML.

Cryptographic protocols often make use of nested cryptographic primitives, for example signed message digests, or encrypted signed messages. Gordon and Jeffrey's prior work on types for authenticity did not allow for such nested cryptography. In this work, we present the pattern-matching spi-calculus, which is an obvious extension of the spi-calculus to include pattern-matching as primitive. The novelty of the language is in the accompanying type system, which uses the same language of patterns to describe complex data dependencies which cannot be described using prior type systems. We show that any appropriately typed process is guaranteed to satisfy robust authenticity, secrecy and integrity properties.

Pattern-matching spi-calculus

We extend a Java-like language with immutability specifications and a static type system for verifying immutability. A class modifier immutable specifies that all class instances are immutable objects. Ownership types specify the depth of object states and enforce encapsulation of representation objects. The type system guarantees that the state of immutable objects does not visibly mutate during a program run. Provided immutability-annotated classes and methods are final, this is true even if immutable classes are composed with untrusted classes that follow Java’s type system, but not our immutability type system.
