Transform, but how?

How Non-linearity will Transform Information Systems

One “problem” with the 21st century world, particularly the economic and business worlds, is the phenomenal and increasing number of interconnections between economic agents (consumers, firms, banks, markets, national economies). This implies that such agents are all interacting and consequently giving raise to enormous degrees of non-linearity, a.k.a. complexity. Complexity often brings with i...

How Distributed Ledgers Can Transform Healthcare Applications

Within the Institute of Informatics and Telematics of the National Research Council in Pisa, a new working group on distributed ledgers (DL) is being set up. The main objective of the group is to study DL technology and implement DL-based solutions for different scenarios, such as traceability of products and health care applications (HCAs). In this paper we focus on HCAs and we illustrate how ...

How to CPS Transform a Monad

CPS transformation is an important tool in the compilation of functional programming languages. For strict languages, such as our web programming language “Rinso” or Microsoft’s F#, monadic expressions can help with structuring and composing computations. To apply a CPS transformation in the compilation process of such a language, we integrate explicit monadic abstraction in a call-by-value sou...
