Formal Semantics of Programming Languages
In this course we will study methods to define behaviors of programs, and methods to reason about properties of programs. We will practice formalizing semantics and building verified programs using Coq.

Lecturer Intro
Hanru Jiang obtained a Ph.D. in computer science and technology from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2019. From 2019 to 2020, he worked as an assistant research fellow at the Quantum Computing Research Center of Pengcheng Laboratory. In 2020, he joined BIMSA as an assistant professor. His main research directions are programming language theory, compiler verification, and programming language aspects in quantum computing. As the main contributor to the concurrent program separation compilation verification work CASCompCert, won the Distinguished Paper Award of PLDI 2019, a top conference in the field of programming languages.
