The big part of my research was to explore the use of expression templates applied to generic program transformation, expressing concepts for Stratego/XT, Rascal and other similar project into a pure C++ library. The project coming with a bootstrapped generalized LL parser generator.

Testing with Axioms in C++ 2011 , Journal of Object Technology
Published on: Jan 01, 2011
Unit testing is an important part of modern software development, where individual code units are tested in isolation. Such tests are typically case-based, checking a likely error scenario or an error that has previously been identified and fixed. Coming up with good test cases is challenging, particularly when testing generic code, and focusing on individual tests can distract from creating tests that cover the full functionality. Concepts provide a generic way of describing code interfaces for generic code. Together with axioms, program behaviour can be specified algebraically in a formal or semi-formal way. In this paper we show how concepts and axioms can be expressed in standard C++ 2011, and explore how to generate generic unit tests, by treating the axioms as code to be evaluated with test data. We also show a generic way to generate test data for axiom-based testing in C++ 2011.
C-Transformers: a framework to write C program transformations , ACM's Crossroads
Published on: Mar 01, 2006
Program transformation techniques have reached a maturity level that allows processing high-level language sources in new ways. Not only do they revolutionize the implementation of compilers and interpreters, but with modularity as a design philosophy, they also permit the seamless extension of the syntax and semantics of existing programming languages. The C-Transformers project provides a transformation environment for C, a language that proves to be hard to transform. We demonstrate the effectiveness of C-Transformers by extending C’s instructions and control flow to support Design by Contract. C-Transformers is developed by members of the LRDE: EPITA undergraduate students
