| Abstract | Reasoning about imperative programs requires the ability to track aliasing and ownership properties. We present a type system that provides this ability, by using regions, capabilities, and singleton types. It is designed for a high-level calculus with higher-order functions, algebraic data structures, and references (mutable memory cells). The type system has polymorphism, yet does not require a value restriction, because capabilities act as explicit store typings. We exhibit a type-directed, type-preserving, and meaning-preserving translation of this imperative calculus into a pure calculus. Like the monadic translation, this is a store-passing translation. Here, however, the store is partitioned into multiple fragments, which are threaded through a computation only if they are relevant to it. Furthermore, the decomposition of the store into fragments can evolve dynamically to reflect ownership transfers. The translation offers deep insight about the inner workings and soundness of the type system. If coupled with a semantic model of its target calculus, it leads to a semantic model of its imperative source calculus. Furthermore, it provides a foundation for our long-term objective of designing a system for specifying and certifying imperative programs with dynamic memory allocation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
