I’m a PhD candidate at the Software Composition Group, University of Bern since 2008.

My research interests are Object-Oriented Programming and Design with particular emphasis on reflection and meta-programming. I am also interested in the epistemology and ontology behind the computational models that we build in order to represent reality.

Projects

I am involved in the development several tools for Pharo.

Some projects I am author are:

• Bifröst, a Reflection unification framework.
• Chameleon, an event-oriented decoupled instrumentation technique.
• MetaSpy, domain-specific profilers.
• OCD, object-centric debugging
• Prisma, reflection scoped to execution.
• Subjectopia, a system to model subjective behavior.
• Talents, dynamically composable units of reuse.
• TextLint, lint-like tool for written style validation.
