209 \item As an undergraduate research student, I worked on \textit{Literate
210 Unit-B}, the verifier for Unit-B, a new formal method focused on formal
211 verification of reactive, concurrent and distributed systems.
212
213 From the Literate Unit-B codebase (written in Haskell), I decoupled the
214 logic module and used it to build \textit{Unit-B Web}, a web interface using
215 Literate Unit-B to do predicate calculus proofs. Unit-B Web, also
216 written in Haskell, supports the \LaTeX\ syntax of the Unit-B logic, renders
217 user input on the page, and calls the sequent prover of the logic module,
218 which uses the \textsc{z3 smt} solver to check the validity of user input.
219
220 \item Further, I separated Literate Unit-B's type checker from its parser,
221 allowing easier substitution of other type checking algorithms and in
222 preparation for implementing subtyping.
