    Rob Stewart – High Level DSLs for Performance Portability! Are there DSLs? (3rd May 2017)

    by  • April 12, 2017 • DSG Research Seminars: Logic and Programming Languages

    This talk will be on 26th April, at the time of 13:15. HPC, GPU and FPGA programmers today often choose relatively low level programming languages such as CUDA, OpenCL, MPI and C, in the belief that direct control of memory management and thread scheduling is the best approach for high performance. An important disadvantage...

    Sven-Bodo Scholz – A λ-Calculus for Transfinite Arrays — Towards Unifying Streams and Arrays (20 April 2017)

    by  • March 14, 2017 • DSG Research Seminars: Logic and Programming Languages, News

    On Thursday the 20th April 2017 Sven-Bodo will give a PL&L seminar talk at the usual time (14:15). Arrays and streams seem to be fundamentally at odds: arrays require their size to be known in advance, streams are dynamically growing; arrays offer direct access to all of their elements, streams provide direct access to...

    Blesson Varghese – Scalable Computing Beyond the Cloud (30 March 2017, Thursday).

    by  • March 14, 2017 • DSG Research Seminars: Logic and Programming Languages, News

    It is forecast that over 50 billion devices will be added to the Internet by 2020. Consequently, 50 trillion gigabytes of data will be generated. Currently, applications generating data on user devices, such as smartphones, tablets and wearables use the cloud as a centralised server. This will soon become an untenable computing model. The...

    Yutaka Nagashima – Towards Smart Proof Search for Isabelle (13 April 2017, Thursday).

    by  • March 14, 2017 • DSG Research Seminars: Logic and Programming Languages, News

    Despite the recent progress in automatic theorem provers, proof engineers are still suffering from the lack of powerful proof automation. In this talk, I present a proof strategy language for Isabelle and a proof method recommendation tool we are developing at Data61. Then, I sketch a smart proof search tool based on these two...
