We study the continuation passing style (CPS) transform and its generalization, the computational transform, in which the notion of computation is generalized from continuation passing to an arbitrary one. To establish a relation between direct style and continuation passing style interpretation of sequential call-by-value programs, we prove the Retraction Theorem which says that a lambda term ...

In this paper, we address the problem of optimizing the style of textual content to make it more suitable to being listened to by a user as opposed to being read. We study the differences between the written style and the audio style by consulting the linguistics and journalism literatures. Guided by this study, we suggest a number of linguistic features to distinguish between the two styles. W...

Invasive Computing enables a resource-aware programming style, which includes adapting to external resource changes similar to malleability. We introduce asynchronously-malleable applications, which can adapt at any time without synchronizing the whole application, in contrast to specific synchronization points. We show how master-slave applications meet the requirements for asynchronous mallea...

A large ongoing debate centers on the costs and benefits of increasing the minimum wage in an economy. Supporters of minimum wage legislation highlight that it can shift the earnings distribution in favor of low-paid workers by shrinking the bottom tail of the distribution. Opponents highlight its disemployment effect and the fact that it might reduce the share of earnings going to low-paid wor...
