Research

My research is about the verification of Sensor and Ad Hoc Networks (WSNs). These networks represent an interesting area of research for the fundamental problems they pose but also for the multitude of applications they can have. In fact, WSNs are typically composed of autonomous communicative devices with varying communication topologies and harsh energy constraints. Their applications range from air pollution, waste water to machine health monitoring.
WSNs turn out to be powerful computation models for which checking basic safety properties such as reachability is undecidable in the general case. We are therefor interested in defining under which conditions some verification work can be conducted.

I was also involved in a line of research where concurrent programs were verified by translating them into a sequential programs (See paper and prototype).
