We incorporate the notion of cost into our reduction rules, and create a type system that over-approximate this cost. This over-approximation results in an equation that may contain unknowns originating from while loops. We conclude with a formal proof of soundness of the type system for our abstract machine, demonstrating that it over-approximates the cost of any terminating program. An implementation of the type system, constraint gathering, and the abstract machine is also presented","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.18158v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2410.18158v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"cost-analysis-for-import-and-export-using-an","repo_url":"https://github.com/BenjaminCB/abstract-machine","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
