Data exchange: getting to the core | ACM Transactions on Database Systems
Data exchange is the problem of taking data structured under a source schema and creating an instance of a target schema that reflects the source data as accurately as possible. Given a source instance, there may be many solutions to the data exchange ...

Boxer: a reconstructible computational medium | Communications of the ACM
Programming is most often viewed as a way for experts to get computers to perform complex tasks efficiently and reliably. Boxer presents an alternative image—programming as a way for nonexperts to control a reconstructible medium, much like written ...

Can we billionaire-proof inference? - Graze Newsletter
A small, federated compute co-op called co/core — and the wider experiment it's a part of.
Mythos, Muse, and the Opportunity Cost of Compute
Does Aggregation Theory survive in a world of constrained compute? Yes, insomuch as controlling demand will give power over supply.

Institutions: abstract model theory for specification and programming | Journal of the ACM
There is a population explosion among the logical systems used in computing science. Examples include first-order logic, equational logic, Horn-clause logic, higher-order logic, infinitary logic, dynamic logic, intuitionistic logic, order-sorted logic, ...

A relational model of data for large shared data banks | Communications of the ACM
Future users of large data banks must be protected from having to know how the data is organized in the machine (the internal representation). A prompting service which supplies such information is not a satisfactory solution. Activities of users at ...

Bidirectionalization for free! (Pearl) | Proceedings of the 36th annual ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT symposium on Principles of programming languages
A bidirectional transformation consists of a function get that takes a source (document or value) to a view and a function put that takes an updated view and the original source back to an updated source, governed by certain consistency conditions ...

Towards Efficient Data Valuation Based on the Shapley Value
{\em “How much is my data worth?”} is an increasingly common question posed by organizations and individuals alike. An answer to this question could allow, for instance, fairly distributing profits among multiple data contributors and determining prospective compensation when data breaches happen. In this paper, we study the problem of \emph{data valuation} by utilizing the Shapley value, a popular notion of value which originated in coopoerative game theory. The Shapley value defines a unique payoff scheme that satisfies many desiderata for the notion of data value. However, the Shapley value often requires \emph{exponential} time to compute. To meet this challenge, we propose a repertoire of efficient algorithms for approximating the Shapley value. We also demonstrate the value of each training instance for various benchmark datasets.
