151 \textit{Research Assistant}
152
153 \begin{itemize}
154 \item I'm working on expanding and testing \texttt{mathmodels},
155 library implementing abstract mathematical collections written in Eiffel. I'll also

161 \textit{Research Student}
162
163 \begin{itemize}
164 \item As an undergraduate research student, I worked on \textit{Literate
165 Unit-B}, the verifier for Unit-B, a new formal method focused on formal
166 verification of reactive, concurrent and distributed systems.
167
168 From the Literate Unit-B codebase (written in Haskell), I decoupled the
169 logic module and used it to build \textit{Unit-B Web}, a web interface using
170 Literate Unit-B to do predicate calculus proofs. \linebreak Unit-B Web, also
171 written in Haskell, supports the \LaTeX\ syntax of the Unit-B logic, renders
172 user input on the page, and calls the sequent prover of the logic module,
173 which uses the \textsc{z3 smt} solver to check the validity of user input.
174
175 \item Further, I separated Literate Unit-B's type checker from its parser,
176 allowing easier substitution of other type checking algorithms and in
177 preparation for implementing subtyping.

278
279 \begin{itemize}
280 \item \textit{Unit-B Web:} The web interface for Unit-B, as mentioned in the
281 \textit{Research Experience} section.\\
282 Source code available at
283 \href{https://github.com/unitb/unitb-web}{https://github.com/unitb/unitb-web}
284
285 \item \textit{tex2png-hs:} A tool for easily converting \TeX\ and \LaTeX\ to
286 \textsc{PNG} images. \texttt{tex2png-hs} is a Haskell port of Xyne's
287 \texttt{tex2png} tool. It is a wrapper around \texttt{latex} and
288 \texttt{dvipng} and provides several options for modifying its behaviour, such
289 as cropping the whitespace around the content, specifying the \textsc{DPI}, or
290 inputting a full document.
