Great Academic year!
Our paper on 'Efficient Session Type Guided Distributed Interaction' was selected for publication to a special issue of 'Science of Computer Programming' (link). We had originally submitted this paper to COORDINATION 2010 for publication.
It was fun working with KC, Luke and Patrick on this paper, which was the outcome of a Distributed systems course project. We were able to build a system to show significant network performance gains over naively programmed Java programs. These gains were the benefit of two simple techniques known as Batching and Chaining. Our main contribution was the automatic code transformation of normal Java code into network-efficient code using Session types.
Also this year, our work on 'Finding Latent Performance Bugs in Systems Implementations' was accepted for publication into FSE 2010. It was three rewards in 6 months!
