This post will survey the latest design decisions and performance improvements made to irmin-pack, the Irmin storage backend used by Tezos…
irmin-pack is an Irmin storage backend that we developed over the last year specifically to meet the Tezos use-case. Tezos nodes were…
I’m excited (and slightly terrified) to announce that Jane Street isreleasing a new podcast, called Signals andThreads, and I’m going to be thehost.
In this talk, we present our work on a syntax definition for the OCaml language in the syntax definition formalism SDF3. SDF3 supports the high-level definition of concrete and abstract syntax through declarative disambiguation and definition of c...
Since their inception, state-machine frameworks have proven their worth by finding defects in everything from the underlying AUTOSAR components of Volvo cars to digital invoicing systems. These case studies were carried out with Erlang’s commercia...
AD-OCaml is a library framework for calculating mathematically exact derivatives and deep power series approximations of almost arbitrary OCaml programs via algorithmic differentiation. Unlike similar frameworks, this includes programs with side e...
In this talk we describe our experience in using an automatic API-migration strategy dedicated at changing the signatures of OCaml functions, using the Rotor refactoring tool for OCaml. We perform a case study on open source Jane Street libraries ...
Irmin is an OCaml library for building distributed databases with the same design principles as Git. Existing Git users will find many familiar features: branching/merging, immutable causal history for all changes, and the ability to restore to an...
OCaml programmers make deliberate use of abstract data types for composing safe and reliable software systems. The OCaml compiler relies on the invariants imposed by the type system to produce efficient and compact runtime data representations. Be...
