Background
Research interests are in sound and industry-strength formal mathematical methods for software design, verification, self-adaptation, and security. Main research topics include: static analysis, privacy, and automated test generation for security; exact and approximate methods for probabilistic program analysis and programming; control theory for adaptive software; quantitative verification and model checking; runtime-efficient and incremental verification.
Miscellany
