Abstract

Choreographic programming is a paradigm for developing concurrent and distributed systems, where programs are choreographies that define, from a global viewpoint, the computations and interactions that communicating processes should enact. Choreography compilation translates choreographies into the local definitions of process behaviours, given as terms in a process calculus.

Proving choreography compilation correct is challenging and error-prone, because it requires relating languages in different paradigms (global interactions vs local actions) and dealing with a combinatorial explosion of proof cases. We present the first certified program for choreography compilation for a nontrivial choreographic language supporting recursion.
