Language Based Technology

• The focus is on the modelling and analysis of
  information systems using language-based
  techniques and tools.
• The key competences of the group include
  theoretical and practical development of novel
  applications of static program analyses this is
  often combined with domain specific modelling
  using process calculi.
• The main application areas are within embedded
  systems and service-oriented computing.
• Some current hot topics
• validation of security protocols
• advanced access control policies related to
  services and distribution
• controlling the information flow inherent in
  systems
