Organized the Alpine Verification Meeting (AVM’24) in 2024, hosting 67 researchers from the verification community.
Background
Main research focus is on algorithmic verification of concurrent programs.
Investigates how partial order reduction and the underlying notion of commutativity enable verification algorithms to find simpler correctness proofs for concurrent programs, thereby increasing efficiency and scalability.
Co-developer of the Ultimate program analysis and automata theory framework.
Implements theoretical results on commutativity in the software model checker Ultimate GemCutter.
Also part of the development team for Ultimate Automizer.
