News

04/2023: we'll present two short papers at ABZ 2023: Adding records to Alloy and Verifying temporal relational models with Pardinus (a short paper about our JAR 2022 article)
09/2022: our paper Pardinus: A temporal relational model finder is published in the Journal of Automated Reasoning.

Research

Current topics:
- Alloy (our own experiments go under the umbrella name "Electrum")
- Formal specification and verification
- Verification of distributed algorithms
- Model-based safety assessment (MBSA)
Free/open-source prototypes: Electrum Analyzer, Electrod, Cervino
Former interests include: isomorphisms of types; formal methods for critical embedded software; multi-agent temporal logic for goal- and agent-oriented requirements modeling.
DBLP, HAL.
