| 53 | <p> |
| 54 | The main goal of my research is improving |
| 55 | <strong>software reliability</strong> |
| 56 | through application of <em>formal methods</em>. |
| 57 | </p> |
| 58 | |
| 59 | <p> |
| 60 | My current research at <a href="https://watform.uwaterloo.ca">WatForm</a> |
| 61 | focuses on formal logic, model checking, and verification. |
| 62 | Specifically, I am working on various optimizations aiming to |
| 63 | improve the analysis performance of the Alloy Analyzer on |
| 64 | models. |
| 65 | </p> |
| 66 | |
| 67 | <p> |
| 68 | I am also interested in programming languages, type systems, and |
| 69 | interactive theorem proving. |
