Abstract Impact investments have the dual goals of generating profit and environmental and/or social impact from the same project or enterprise. This article examines recent impact investments in biodiversity conservation—specifically, debt finance in the form of conventional bonds and impact bonds.

The size of a data structure (i.e., the number of elements in it) is a widely used property of a data set. However, for concurrent programs, obtaining a correct size efficiently is non-trivial. In fact, the literature does not offer a mechanism to obtain a correct (linearizable) size of a concurrent data set without resorting to inefficient solutions ...

Standard Type Soundness for Agents and Artifacts [PDF]
Formal models, core calculi, and type systems, are important tools for rigorously stating the more subtle details of a language, to characterise and study its features and the correctness properties of its programs.

Revocation techniques for Java concurrency [PDF]
This paper proposes two approaches to managing concurrency in Java using a guarded region abstraction. Both approaches use revocation of such regions—the ability to undo their effects automatically and transparently. These new techniques alleviate many of the constraints that inhibit construction of transparently scalable and robust concurrent ...
