Joonwon Choi.
I'm a graduate student at MIT CSAIL, currently co-advised by Adam Chlipala and Arvind. I'm interested in formal verification for any computer systems that are hard to believe to be correct. I'm an advocate of mechanized proofs, I like to prove something with Coq. I don't believe things not proven.

Research Interests
My current research interests are as follows:
- Formal synthesis of protocols in message-passing systems.
- Formal verification for correct hardware design and synthesis, based on modular proof. Take a look at the Kami project page for details
- Formal verification of realistic processors.
