We propose a thesis defending the following statement: The logical notions of polarity and focusing provide a foundation for dependently typed programming with domain-specific logics, with applications to certified software and mechanized metatheory.

this paper tries to study the emergence and changes of mechanized industry in iran within qajar dynasty (mid-19th century) and the islamic revolution triumph (1978). it focuses on the governments role in delayed industrialization, and accordingly surveys the governments role in building institutions and commercial policy-making for industrialization. since governments nature and its role in eco...

The nineteenth century witnessed far-reaching changes in the nature and organization of industrial production. Traditional non-mechanized establishments artisan shops were displaced by mechanized water or steam-driven plants and extensive division of labor increased the average size of firms (Chandler 1977; Sokoloff 1984). In these new mills and "factories", the centralized nature of motive pow...

This research project was one of a number concerned with mechanized information retrieval carried out at INSPEC and supported by grants from, originally, the Department of Education and Science's Office for Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI) and, later, the British Library Research and Development Department (BLRDD). The first project, in the period 1967-69, had investigated the perfor...

Automated reasoning of inductive theorems is considered important in program verification. To verify inductive theorems automatically, several implicit induction methods like the inductionless induction and the rewriting induction methods have been proposed. In studying inductive theorems on higher-order rewritings, we found that the class of the theorems shown by known implicit induction metho...

Concurrent higher-order imperative programming languages with continuations are very flexible and allow for the implementation of sophisticated programming patterns. For instance, researchers and practitioners have argued that the implementation of web servers can be simplified by using a programming pattern based on continuations. This programming pattern can, in particular, help simplify keep...
