Course Description: This course will focus on the Foundations of Sequential and Concurrent Programming Languages. In particular:
Assignments and grading: There will be 6 assignments during the course, a midterm exam (in class) and a research project. Final grades will be determined on the basis of the assignments, of the exam and of the project, as follows:
The assignments will be both theoretical and programming exercises. The languages recommended for the programming exercises are ML and Prolog (or Lambda Prolog, for those who know it).
Assignments are due at the end of class on the date specified. They will be accepted after that time until the end of the next class with a 20% penalty. No submission will be accepted after this time.
Academic Integrity:
Although it is reasonable (and even encouraged!)
to discuss with other students the problems of the assignments,
each student is expected to submit only
his own original work, or where applicable,
to cite the source of the solution (books,
articles, and other individuals).
