| Research My main interests lie in the area of formal specification and verification of critical real-world systems such as security protocols. I fancy both mechanised approaches such as the Inductive Method and non-mechanised ones such as Soft Constraint Solving. Lately, I've started looking at biological issues that are profitably amenable to mechanised formal analysis. I still don't call this bioinformatics as I just see it as yet another application of formal methods. Beside formal verification, I've also recently looked at some peculiar problems of peer-to-peer networks and at the world of business processes and workflows.
