Overview

My research develops the logical foundations of cyber-physical systems to characterize their fundamental principles and to show how we can design computers that are guaranteed to interact correctly with the physical world. The solution to this challenge is the key to enabling computer assistance that we can bet our lives on. I pursue this challenge with the principled design of programming languages with logics that can provide proofs as correctness guarantees. [details]

The KeYmaera X aXiomatic Theorem Prover for Hybrid Systems is a practical verification tool. The family of differential dynamic logics for hybrid systems verification that it implements are explained as well as more general Logical Foundations of Cyber-Physical Systems.

Information on the courses I teach at Carnegie Mellon University are under Teaching. If you want to do research with me, you should take the Foundations of Cyber-Physical Systems course.
