My research group tackles a key societal concern: how to develop error-free computer programs.

We focus on message-passing programs: the backbone of the software infrastructures we all depend on.

RESEARCH

Rigorous programming models for concurrent and message-passing computation.

I am especially interested in:

  • Logical foundations: the Curry-Howard correspondence for Concurrency (CHoCo).

  • Verification techniques: in particular type systems (such as session types).

  • Comparative expressiveness of models and languages with concurrency.


My VIDI project - see the project page.
