National Initiatives

• We were the leader of the ANR project Galapagos, which started on Nov. 19th 2007 and finished on Nov. 19th 2011. Other participants in this contract are the universities of Strasbourg and Poitiers, ENSIEE in Evry and the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Lyon. The objective of this contract is to study the formal description of geometric concepts and algorithms.

• We participated to the ANR SCALP, which started on January 1st, 2008. Other participants in this contract were DCS-Verimag (Grenoble), Plume-LIP (Lyon), Proval-LRI (Orsay), CPR-Cédric (Cnam, Paris). In this project we focused on the formalization of Cryptography.

• We participated to the ANR project DeCert, which started on January 2009. Other participants are CEA List (Paris), LORIA-INRIA (Nancy), Celtique (IRISA Rennes), Proval (LRI Orsay), Typical (INRIA Saclay), Systerel (Aix-en-provence). The objective of the DeCert project was to design an architecture for cooperating decision procedures. To ensure trust in the architecture, the decision procedures will either be proved correct inside a proof assistant or produce proof witnesses allowing external checkers to verify the validity of their answers.

• We participate to the ANR project TAMADI, which started in October 2010. Other participants are ARENAIRE-INRIA Rhone-Alpes and the PEQUAN team from University of Paris VI Pierre and Marie Curie. The objective of the TAMADI project is to study question of precision in floating-point arithmetic and to provide formal proofs on this topic.
