201 \textit{Research Student
}
204 \item As an undergraduate research student, I worked on
\textit{Literate
205 Unit-B
}, the verifier for Unit-B, a new formal method focused on formal
206 verification of reactive, concurrent and distributed systems.
208 From the Literate Unit-B codebase (written in Haskell), I decoupled the
209 logic module and used it to build
\textit{Unit-B Web
}, a web interface using
210 Literate Unit-B to do predicate calculus proofs.
\linebreak Unit-B Web, also
211 written in Haskell, supports the
\LaTeX\ syntax of the Unit-B logic, renders
212 user input on the page, and calls the sequent prover of the logic module,
213 which uses the
\textsc{z3 smt
} solver to check the validity of user input.
215 \item Further, I separated Literate Unit-B's type checker from its parser,
216 allowing easier substitution of other type checking algorithms and in
217 preparation for implementing subtyping.
