Computers need programming languages to function. That’s just a simple fact of life. However, these languages didn’t just spring up out of nowhere. They were developed by people for explicit purposes.

This course addresses programming skills at an intermediate level and focuses specifically on scientific and engineering computing skills. This course will emphasize topics commonly encountered in ...

Several technical advances have been achieved recently in the pursuit of powerful quantum computers. Now, Computer scientists have made an important breakthrough in the field of programming languages: ...

In Programming Languages research, we explore the ways in which computations are expressed in written form. Our research focuses on three central ideas: the semantics of a particular piece of program ...
