Abstract

Industrial cyber-physical systems generate vast amounts of semi-structured time-series data that require careful preprocessing before they can be effectively used for machine learning applications such as fault detection and identification. Raw sensor datasets are often corrupted or incomplete, making it challenging to develop reliable solutions without proper data preparation and validation. In this paper, we introduce CPSLint, a domain-specific language for data validation and sanitisation. We present the design, implementation and evaluation of CPSLint, demonstrating its ability to automatically detect and correct common data corruption patterns while enabling non-programming domain experts to effectively prepare their data for analysis. We report evaluation results on a representative dataset, tracking memory consumption and CPU-time for sanitisation activities. Our approach offers several advantages over traditional methods, including reduced manual effort, guaranteed consistency and broader applicability across time-series datasets and projects.

Multi-paradigm Logic Programming in the ${\cal E}$rgoAI System

ErgoAI is a high level, multi-paradigm logic programming language and system developed by Coherent Knowledge Systems as an enhancement of and a successor to the popular Flora-2 system. ErgoAI is oriented towards scalable knowledge representation and reasoning, and can exploit both structured knowledge as well as knowledge derived from external sources such as vector embeddings. From the start, ErgoAI (and Flora-2 before it) were designed to exploit the well-founded semantics for reasoning in a multi-paradigm environment, including object-based logic (F-logic) with non-monotonic inheritance; higher order syntax in the style of HiLog; defeasibility of rules; semantically clean transactional updates; extensive use of subgoal delay for handling unsafe queries and for better performance; and optional support for bounded rationality at a module level. Although Flora-2 programs are compiled into XSB and adopt many Prolog features, ErgoAI is altogether a different language and system. Under consideration in Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP).

When is LLM-Based Program Reasoning Correct? A Completion Semantics for LLM-Based Code Inference

Due to token and cognitive limits, Large Language Models (LLMs) typically perform program reasoning over incomplete code fragments/prompts rather than complete programs. Such reasoning therefore must rely on {assumptions about omitted code and context. As a result, the meaning of an inference over a program fragment is not absolute, but depends on an implicit completion model describing how the fragment may be refined into a complete program. In this paper, we introduce completion semantics for LLM-based program reasoning. We formalize incomplete programs as denoting a space of possible refinements and define the correctness of existential inferences relative to a completion model. Under this view, a reported bug is correct whenever there exists a completion within the model that witnesses the bug. This perspective explains why many LLM-generated reports are neither simply correct nor incorrect, but instead depend on assumptions about omitted context. We have instantiated our approach in the form of a witness-generation workflow that concretizes completions underlying an inference by constructing executable refinements of the original program fragment. Witnesses serve both as evidence for existential claims and as a mechanism for exposing the assumptions required to support them. We evaluate our approach on real-world LLM-generated bug reports and program-analysis tasks. Our results show that witness generation effectively distinguishes inferences supported by plausible completions from those requiring unrealistic assumptions, providing a practical mechanism for validating reasoning over incomplete programs.

Opportunistic ZGC: Leveraging Idle Cores for More Effective Concurrent Garbage Collection

Managed language runtimes often provide concurrent garbage collectors so that latency-critical applications with large working sets can keep running while most collection work proceeds in the background. ZGC is a production-quality, generational, concurrent collector in OpenJDK with sub-millisecond pause times. While ZGC is designed to run concurrently, frequent and excessive collections with ZGC can still slow the mutators due to synchronization costs and interference with shared computing resources. Hence, the ZGC scheduler is conservative by default, and in most cases, will grow the heap toward the maximum allowed before scheduling a collection. While this approach minimizes collection effort, it can be wasteful, or even harmful, if the maximum heap size is not well tuned to the actual working set. We propose Opportunistic ZGC (OppZGC), a feedback-directed ZGC scheduling policy that constrains the heap dynamically and automatically, without per-application tuning. OppZGC identifies periods when CPU cores are underutilized and leverages them for concurrent collection with ZGC. We describe the design and implementation of OppZGC in OpenJDK's HotSpot Java VM and evaluate it with standard and latency-sensitive benchmarks from DaCapo Chopin and SPECjbb. OppZGC limits heap usage when there is CPU capacity sufficient for additional collections, and avoids scheduling extra collections when they would substantially degrade performance. Overall, it reduces maximum heap usage for our DaCapo benchmarks by between 61% and 90%, on average, depending on configuration, with minimal impact on throughput and request latency compared to default ZGC.
