- Multiparty session types, originally published at POPL'08 and extended in JACM (http://doi.acm.org/10.1145/2827695), received the POPL'18 Most Influential Paper award. This work uncovered fundamental flaws in the proofs of soundness in several extensions of the original work and provides a general framework for fixing them, by using model-checking for automatic verification of safety/liveness properties for general mobile processes. This key idea is applied to the Scala programming language in a follow-on PLDI'19 paper (https://doi.org/10.1145/3314221.3322484; Artifact Evaluation passed). Contributed to two EPSRC grants (EP/V000461/1; £1.48m and EP/T014709/1; £697k) and Scalas’s lectureship appointment at Aston. POPL 2019 acceptance rate: 28%/267.
