Research Profile

James Power works with the Principles of Programming research group which specialises in the static and dynamic analysis of object-oriented programs and programming languages. We exploit a variety of techniques, such as parsing, bytecode analysis, software metrics, meta-modelling and program verification to model software systems in order to increase comprehensibility and reliability. Our work has applications in reverse engineering, program verification and validated forward engineering from design to code. We have a strong interest in the formal underpinnings of software technology, and much of our work has links with formal methods in program design and analysis.
