Personal profile

Research interests

My research interests include verification for robotics and autonomous systems, specification and verification of systems and theorem-proving for temporal and modal logics. In particular, I am interested in developing and applying tools and techniques that ensure systems satisfy their requirements.  I have worked with robot designers and engineers applying formal verification to their systems using logics and tools such as model
checkers and theorem provers.
