Research

I am a Computer Science Ph.D. student in the Honiden Laboratory at the National Institute of Informatics and the University of Tokyo.
Research interests in no particular order:

Tools and formal methods for software engineering
Design and implementation of programming languages
Component discovery and adaptation at various levels in the software hierarchy.
Code synthesis
Ontologies, knowledge representation and automated reasoning

Generally speaking, I'm interested in the conceptualization that occurs when we try to build software representations of the real world. What information should be preserved in such representations, and how do we resolve contradictions between different representations automatically? How can we develop tools and languages to support a more scalable development process?

Main project: Poplar.
