Backpropagation with Callbacks: Foundations for Efficient and Expressive Differentiable Programming
2018
Neural Information Processing Systems
A key realization is that this technique of chaining callbacks is well known in the programming languages community as continuation-passing style (CPS). ...
In this paper we propose an implementation of backpropagation using functions with callbacks, where the forward pass is executed as a sequence of function calls, and the backward pass as a corresponding ...

Metacomputation-Based Compiler Architecture
[chapter]
2000
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This style uses two monads to factor the static and dynamic parts of the speci cation, thereby staging the speci cation and achieving strong binding-time separation. ...
Because metacomputations are de ned i n t e r m s of monads, they can be c onstructed m o dularly and extensibly using monad transformers. ...
Acknowledgements The authors would like to thank Uday Reddy and the rest of the functional programming research group at UIUC for o ering many helpful suggestions that led to signi cant improvements in ...

Back to direct style
[chapter]
1992
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
This paper describes the transformation of I-terms from continuation-passing style (CPS) to direct style. ...
In addition, the two transformations-to continuation-passing style and to direct style-are factored using a language where all intermediate values are named and their computation is sequentialized. ...
The diagram of Section 2 was drawn with Kristoffer Rose's XY-pit package. ...

Actor Continuation Passing: Efficient and Extensible Request Routing for Event-Driven Architectures
[article]
2011
arXiv
pre-print
This complicates changing and understanding the flow of events in the system. ...
Evaluation results indicate that request handling with actor continuations performs about equally or better compared to using separate stages for request handling logic for scripts of at least 3 sequential ...
Acknowledgments The author thanks Björn Kolbeck who initially described the problem in the context of XtreemFS [2] , a distributed filesystem implemented as a staged architecture. ...

A Language and Compiler View on Differentiable Programming
2018
International Conference on Learning Representations
In this paper we demonstrate that a "best of both worlds" approach is possible, based on multi-stage programming and delimited continuations, two orthogonal ideas firmly rooted in programming languages ...
Current and emerging deep learning architectures call for an expressive high-level programming style with end-to-end differentiation and for a high-performance implementation at the same time. ...
Keeping the straight-forward coding fashion of the forward mode, our implementation switches to continuation-passing style (CPS): the overloaded operators take a delimited continuation as parameter -a ...

Back to Direct Style II: First-Class Continuations
1996
BRICS Report Series
<p>The direct-style transformation aims at mapping continuation-passing programs back to direct style, be they originally written in continuation-passing style or the result of the continuation-passing-style ...
In this paper, we continue to investigate the direct-style transformation by extending it to programs with first-class continuations. ...
Andrzej Filinski, Karoline Malmkjaer, and the LFP92 reviewers commented on earlier versions of this paper. ...

A generic account of continuation-passing styles
1994
Proceedings of the 21st ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT symposium on Principles of programming languages - POPL '94
We unify previous work on the continuation-passing style (CPS) transformations in a generic framework based on Moggi's computational met a-language. ...

One Step at a Time
[chapter]
2019
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Many of the steps in the transformation, which include CPS-conversion, defunctionalisation, and various continuation manipulations, mirror those used by Danvy and his co-authors. ...
We present a fully automated transformation that maps big-step evaluators written in direct style to their small-step counterparts. ...
This derivation proceeds through a sequence of, mostly basic, transformation steps. First, the big-step evaluation function is converted into continuation-passing style to make control-flow explicit. ...

AutoGraph: Imperative-style Coding with Graph-based Performance
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
We describe how the use of staged programming in Python, via source code transformation, offers a midpoint between these two library design patterns, capturing the benefits of both. ...
In machine learning, imperative style libraries like Autograd and PyTorch are easy to write, but suffer from high interpretive overhead and are not easily deployable in production or mobile settings. ...
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We would like to thank Alex Passos and the rest of the Ten-sorFlow team for their help and support integrating Auto-Graph into TensorFlow 2.0. ...

From Interpreter to Logic Engine by Defunctionalization
2004
BRICS Report Series
The key transformation here is Reynolds's defunctionalization that transforms a tail-recursive, continuation-passing interpreter into a transition system, i.e., an abstract machine. ...
Starting from a continuation-based interpreter for a simple logic programming language, propositional Prolog with cut, we derive the corresponding logic engine in the form of an abstract machine. ...

Inverse macro in Scala
2015
SIGPLAN notices
We also show the expressiveness of the inverse macro system by comparing two versions of shift/reset, bundled in Scala 2.11 and implemented with the inverse macro system. ...
The inverse macro system enables to implement operators with complex side-effects, such as lazy operators and delimited continuation operators, which are beyond the power of existing macro systems. ...
Then, a function call in the continuation passing style is constructed considering whether it is pure or impure. Finally, the transformation method returns a newly built syntax tree. ...
