Research

My research is about the design, semantics and implementation of languages that ensure strong safety properties to model, simulate and implement critical control software (e.g., fly-by-wire, engine and braking systems in planes). I have particular interest for synchronous languages, their extensions and embedding into general-purpose functional languages. With Paul Caspi and Grégoire Hamon, I developed the language Lucid Synchrone, an extension a la ML of Lustre. Several language features and compilation techniques have been integrated to the language Scade 6 developed by ANSYS. In collaboration with INRIA (Alchemy) and NXP, I worked on the N-synchronous model to program real-time video systems (e.g., TV boxes). Currently, my research is about the semantics and implementation of hybrid systems modelers (e.g., Simulink, Modelica), the design and implementation of Zelus, a synchronous language that mixes discrete and continuous time, Velus, a formally verified compiler for Lustre with Coq. Since 2019, I am involved in ProbZelus, a reactive probabilistic language built on top of Zelus. See publications and talks.
