Research and Development

Olena

A software platform for generic and efficient image processing. The core of Olena is a generic C++ library, Milena, using a programming paradigm mixing Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) and Generic Programming (GP), called SCOOP.

Tiger Compiler

This project aims at developing a compiler for the Tiger language, written in C++. It is part of the EPITA curriculum.

I also contribute to these projects:

HAVM

An interepreter for Andrew Appel's Tree intermediate language.

Nolimips

A MIPS-based simulator with "infinitely many registers". It consists of an assembler which reads MIPS assembly code, and of a virtual machine which executes the instructions processed by the assembler.

MonoBURG

A code generator generator, a tool that produces a function from a tree-pattern description of an instruction set.
