Interleaving Data and Effects"
Archived version from NCDOCKS Institutional Repository http://libres.uncg.edu/ir/asu/ Interleaving data and effects By: Robert Atkey and Patricia Johann Abstract: The study of programming with and reasoning about inductive datatypes such as lists and trees has benefited from the simple categorical principle of initial algebras. In initial algebra semantics, each inductive datatype is represented by an initial f-algebra for an appropriate functor f. The initial algebra principle then supports the straightforward derivation of definitional principles and proof principles for these datatypes. This technique has been expanded to a whole methodology of structured functional programming, often called origami programming.In this article we show how to extend initial algebra semantics from pure inductive datatypes to inductive datatypes interleaved with computational effects. Inductive datatypes interleaved with effects arise naturally in many computational settings. For example, incrementally reading characters from a file generates a list of characters interleaved with input/output actions, and lazily constructed infinite values can be represented by pure data interleaved with the possibility of non-terminating computation. Straightforward application of initial algebra techniques to effectful datatypes leads either to unsound conclusions if we ignore the possibility of effects, or to unnecessarily complicated reasoning because the pure and effectful concerns must be considered simultaneously. We show how pure and effectful concerns can be separated using the abstraction of initial f-and-m-algebras, where the functor f describes the pure part of a datatype and the monad m describes the interleaved effects. Because initial f-and-m-algebras are the analogue for the effectful setting of initial f- algebras, they support the extension of the standard definitional and proof principles to the effectful setting. -

A Real-Time Reactive Platform for Data Integration and Event Stream Processing
DEGREE PROJECT, IN INFORMATION AND SOFTWARE SYSTEMS / COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING , SECOND LEVEL STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN 2014 A Real-Time Reactive Platform for Data Integration and Event Stream Processing ALEXANDRE TAMBORRINO KTH ROYAL INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY SCHOOL OF INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY A Real-Time Reactive platform for Data Integration and Event Stream Processing ALEXANDRE TAMBORRINO Master’s Thesis at Zengularity, examined by KTH ICT Supervisor: Antoine Michel Examiner: Vladimir Vlassov TRITA xxx yyyy-nn Abstract This thesis presents a Real-time Reactive platform for Data Integration and Event Stream Processing. The Data Inte- gration part is composed of data pullers that incrementally pull data changes from REST data sources and propagates them as streams of immutable events across the system ac- cording to the Event-Sourcing principle. The Stream Pro- cessing part is a Tree-like structure of event-sourced stream processors where a processor can react in various ways to events sent by its parent and send derived sub-streams of events to child processors. A processor use case is main- taining a pre-computed view on aggregated data, which allows to define low read latency business dashboards that are updated in real-time. The platform follows the Reac- tive architecture principles to maximize performance and minimize resource consumption using an asynchronous non- blocking architecture with an adaptive push-pull stream processing model with automatic back-pressure. Moreover, the platform uses functional programming abstractions for simple and composable asynchronous programming. Per- formance tests have been performed on a prototype applica- tion, which validates the architecture model by showing ex- pected performance patterns concerning event latency be- tween the top of the processing tree and the leaves, and expected fault-tolerance behaviours with acceptable recov- ery times. -
