Two papers by members of the group have been accepted at
the [34th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, ECOOP 2020](https://2020.ecoop.org/home).
The paper by Gabriela, Jose, Petar and Philippa is entitled [A Trusted Infrastructure
for Symbolic Analysis of Event-Driven Web Applications](https://2020.ecoop.org/track/ecoop-2020-papers#event-overview).
It introduces a trusted infrastructure for symbolic analysis of modern event-driven Web applications.
The infrastructure consists of reference implementations of the DOM Core Level 1 and UI Events,
JavaScript Promises, and the JavaScript async/await APIs, all underpinned by a simple
Core Event Semantics that is sufficiently expressive to describe the event models
underlying all these APIs. The implementations follow the API respective standards
line-by-line and have been thoroughly tested. An associated artifact was also
accepted by the evaluation committee.
Shale, Andrea, Azalea and Philippa's paper, [Data Consistency in Transactional Storage Systems:
A Centralised Semantics presents novel interleaving operational semantics for
describing the client-observable behaviour of atomic transactions
on distributed key-value stores](https://2020.ecoop.org/details/ecoop-2020-papers/21/Data-Consistency-in-Transactional-Storage-Systems-A-Centralised-Semantics).
ECOOP, the European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, is Europe’s longest-standing annual
Programming Languages (PL) conference, bringing together researchers,
practitioners, and students working on all topics related to programming languages,
