141 \item {\large Software Engineering Lab, } York University\, |\, {\small summer 2016}
142
143 \textit{Research Student}
144
145 \begin{itemize}
146 \item As an undergraduate research student, I worked on \textit{Literate
147 Unit-B}, the verifier for Unit-B, a new formal method focused on formal
148 verification of reactive, concurrent and distributed systems.
149
150 From the Literate Unit-B codebase (written in Haskell), I decoupled the
151 logic module and used it to build \textit{Unit-B Web}, a web interface using
152 Literate Unit-B to do predicate calculus proofs. \linebreak Unit-B Web, also
153 written in Haskell, supports the \LaTeX\ syntax of the Unit-B logic, renders
154 user input on the page, and calls the sequent prover of the logic module,
155 which uses the Z3 SMT solver to check the validity of user input.
156
157 \item Further, I separated Literate Unit-B's type checker from its parser,
158 allowing easier substitution of other type checking algorithms and in
159 preparation for implementing subtyping.
