Browne's Home Page cbbrowne@acm.org Christopher Browne's Web Pages Prev Next In the realm of computing, the term functional tends to take on two very distinct meanings: From the comp.lang.functional FAQ comes the following: "Functional programming is a style of programming that emphasizes the evaluation of expressions, rather than execution of commands. The expressions in these language are formed by using functions to combine basic values. A functional language is a language that supports and encourages programming in a functional style. " In an imperative language, one might describe an algorithm for adding values together to get a sum thus: The functional equivalent would be expressed without any variable updates ( e.g.

Extractions: by Martin Elsman - last revised: 2003-04-02 Home : Student Projects at IT-C SMLserver Web Services: The goal of this project is to add support for SOAP -based Web services in the Standard ML programming language. There are two aspects of this project. First, support for accessing Web services from Standard ML programs (e.g., from SMLserver scriptlets) is needed. Second, support for writing Web services in the programming language Standard ML and publicising such Web services are open to investigation. Requirements: Knowledge about Standard ML and XML. Posix Library for Standard ML: On the basis of the Standard ML Basis Library specification, the goal of this project is to implement and create test cases for the Posix part of the library. The library should be implemented in the framework of the ML Kit compiler, although compatibility with other compilers (such as Moscow ML ) is important. Requirements: Knowledge about Standard ML and C. Thread Support for the ML Kit with Regions: The goal of this project is to design and implement a thread library for the ML Kit , a Standard ML compiler, which uses a non-traditional mechanism for memory management, called region inference. The thread-library should be implemented on top of

Programming In Standard ML These notes are intended as a brief introduction to Standard ml (1997 dialect) for the experienced programmer http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/People/rwh/introsml/
Extractions: Programming in Standard ML Robert Harper School of Computer Science Carnegie Mellon University Fall, 2000 This version of the notes is obsolete! The current version is available here These notes are intended as a brief introduction to Standard ML (1997 dialect) for the experienced programmer. They began as lecture notes for 15-212: Fundamental Principles of Computer Science II , the second semester of the introductory sequence in the undergraduate computer science curriculum at Carnegie Mellon University. They have subsequently been used in several other courses at Carnegie Mellon, and at a number of universities around the world. These notes are intended to supersede my Introduction to Standard ML , which has been widely circulated over the last ten years. The Definition of Standard ML (Revised) by Robin Milner, Mads Tofte, Robert Harper, and David MacQueen (MIT Press, 1997) constitutes the official definition of the language. It is supplemented by the Standard ML Basis Library , which defines a common basis of types that are shared by all implementations of Standard ML. There are several implementations of Standard ML available for a variety of hardware and software platforms.

Extractions: of New Jersey Standard ML of New Jersey (abbreviated SML/NJ ) is a compiler for the Standard ML '97 programming language with associated libraries, tools, and documentation. SML/NJ is free, open source software. Working version 110.45 available. This is a maintenance release which mostly fixes problems compiling the runtime system code using GCC 3.3. Working version 110.44 available. This update fixes several important bugs, improves the new installer, provides support for Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther), and continues to bring the Basis implementation closer to the specification. Working version 110.43 available. This is a fairly major update which brings back an operational port to the Microsoft Windows platform as well as extensive work on the Basis library (including support for IntInf.int The SML/NJ source CVS repository has been moved to SourceForge. The SML/NJ SourceForge project page has a link to information about CVS access. The distribution files are also in the process of being moved to SourceForge. A mirror of the www.smlnj.org is available at the University of Chicago . The Bell Labs SML/NJ web site is now obsolete and will be replaced with an indirection to www.smlnj.org. [March 10, 2003]
Functional Programming In The Real World Lists functional programs written primarily to perform to realworld tasks. Has pure programs (no side effects) and impure (some use of side effects). Languages Caml, Clean, Erlang, Haskell, Miranda, Scheme, Standard ml. http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/wadler/realworld/
Extractions: Here is a list of functional programs applied to real-world tasks. The main criterion for being real-world is that the program was written primarily to perform some task, not primarily to experiment with functional programming. Functional is used in the broad sense that includes both `pure' programs (no side effects) and `impure' (some use of side effects). Languages covered include CAML, Clean, Erlang, Haskell, Miranda, Scheme, SML, and others. Further entries are solicted. To submit an entry, please copy the HTML source of this sample and fill in your own details, then send by email to the address below. If in doubt whether your application is suitable for the list, please ask. This list was originally inspired by a Dagstuhl workshop in May 1994 on Functional Programming in the Real World , organised by Robert Giegerich and John Hughes. The list was originated by Philip Wadler, who currently maintains it. Thanks are due to our previous maintainers, Andy Gill and Jonathan Hogg Quite a few libraries exist for various languages, many of which include some impressive real-world applications.

Extractions: My AESOP page: http://aesop.doc.ic.ac.uk/~sgilmore/ Photograph: December 2002 I pursue research on the use of the PEPA stochastic process algebra and on the Standard ML functional programming language. A PEPA home page allows you to obtain information about PEPA. I have written a Standard ML '97 tutorial . I offer this small insight about Java: ``main is static, but static is not main''. Hope that helps. At present I am working on the following projects: PEPA with Jane Hillston, Leila Kloul, and Marina Ribaudo. Mobile Resource Guarantees with David Aspinall, Martin Hofmann, Don Sannella and Ian Stark. Design Environments for Global Applications with Perdita Stevens, Val Haenel, Monika Maidl, Corrado Priami, Linda Brodo and Catherine Canevet. P# (``P sharp'') with Jon Cook.
Home Page For Rowan Davies Carnegie Mellon University Standard ml with refinement-type checking, relationships between modal logics and programming languages. http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~rowan/
Extractions: I'm now in my n th year of study towards a Ph.D. in the CS department at CMU , advised by Frank Pfenning . I'm now also a lecturer in the Computer Science and Software Engineering Department at the University of Western Australia My research interests mostly concern the examination of a wide variety of concepts in both theoretical and practical computer science and attempting to relate these to concepts in logic and type theory. This sometimes leads to new insights, and sometimes suggests useful generalizations of computer science concepts. For example, in ongoing work with others I have demonstrated a relationship between modal logics and the languages used in partial evaluation, and used this idea to design an extension of the programming language ML with run-time code generation. In separate work I have considered modal logic as a logical basis for languages which combine imperative features and more "logical" constructs such as functions and pairs. See my longer description of research interests for more details. Recently my main interest has been refinement types, which combine the features of ordinary type systems such as functions and records with elements of program properties such as implication and logical "and". This allows efficient expression of many common program properties that are beyond the scope of ordinary type systems, while retaining desirable properties such as an intuitive error reporting, and efficient checking. My thesis work involves extending the programming language Standard ML with refinement-type checking. Here are some
