Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

- Ask HN: Usefulness of formal verification (Coq) and formal verification (TLA+)?
-
Quint: A specification language based on the temporal logic of actions (TLA)
```
https://github.com/tlaplus/tlaplus/blob/master/tlatools/org....
In any case, our whole team thinks TLA is great, and we're happy people like you and Ron find it so useful and insightful. We also think it is a very insightful.

Concurrent Data-structure Design Walk-Through
There are no tests! There are various ways to test concurrent data structures. You could use a stress test, where you spawn a lot of threads and let them mutate the map in a random way and then check the consistency of the map and some invariants. You could learn TLA+ and write a formal model of the map and then verify it.

In Which I Claim Rich Hickey Is Wrong
Dafny and Whiley are two examples with explicit verification support. Idris and other dependently typed languages should all be rich enough to express the required predicate but might not necessarily be able to accept a reasonable implementation as proof. Isabelle, Lean, Coq, and other theorem provers definitely can express the capability but aren't going to churn out much in the way of executable programs; they're more useful to guide an implementation in a more practical functional language but then the proof is separated from the implementation, and you could also use tools like TLA+.

Programming Languages Going Above and Beyond
I wish something like Lamport's TLA+ (https://lamport.azurewebsites.net/tla/tla.html) was supported in modern language compilers - perhaps with annotations/macros and a mini formal DSL.
- Ask HN: How you understand TLA+ and how you use TLA+ in your projects?

A collection of lock-free data structures written in standard C++11
Checking the invariant with assert is also useful in my limited experience with concurrency.

What I've Learned About Formal Methods in Half a Year
One advantage of formal methods is in determining "what was expected" (including all the goofy edge cases) without having to burrow into the details of code.
Take a look at Alloy (http://alloytools.org/) and TLA+ (https://lamport.azurewebsites.net/tla/tla.html) for example. (Or even the ancient Z ("Zed") notation (https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~15819/zedbook.pdf)).

How do I get the set of process identifier of PlusCal?
The pcal generator does *not* generate a definition for the set of labels. However, some users have suggested to add such a feature: https://github.com/tlaplus/tlaplus/issues/613

Atomics and Concurrency
If you're interested about lock-free data structures, I wrote [lockfree](https://github.com/DNedic/lockfree) a collection of lock-free data structures meant to be readable and both hosted system and embedded friendly.

Optimizing a Ring Buffer for Throughput
If you want more than a spsc queue, I've written `lockfree`, a collection of SPSC and MPMC data structures along the same principles the author here used:https://github.com/DNedic/lockfree.
The library is written in standard C++11 (but additional API's for higher C++ versions have been added), uses no dynamic allocation and is configurable so it is both big metal and deeply embedded friendly.

A collection of lock-free data structures written in standard C++11
- A lot of code won't work for types with no default constructors, but that is at least compile error
- Using memcpy[0] for arbitrary types is just wrong, see [1]

Lock-free data structures
My friend wrote a few lock-free data structures and he is now looking for some feedback. Here is the link: https://github.com/DNedic/lockfree
- A collection of lock-free data structures written in standard c++11
- A collection of embedded friendly lock-free data structures written in standard C++11
