A generic type-and-effect system
Daniel Marino, Todd D. Millstein · 2009
Type-and-effect systems are a natural approach for statically reasoning about a program's execution. They have been used to track a variety of computational effects, for example memory manipulation, exceptions, and locking. However, each type-and-effect system is typically implemented as its own monolithic type system that hard-codes a particular syntax of effects along with particular rules to track and control those effects.
