Verifying message-passing programs with dependent behavioural types

Alceste Scalas, Nobuko Yoshida, Elias Benussi · 2019

Concurrent and distributed programming is notoriously hard. Modern languages and toolkits ease this difficulty by offering message-passing abstractions, such as actors (e.g., Erlang, Akka, Orleans) or processes (e.g., Go): they allow for simpler reasoning w.r.t. shared-memory concurrency, but do not ensure that a program implements a given specification.
