AboutAbout the lab
Exploring the foundations of software through term rewriting systems and more
The Sakai Lab specializes in the foundations of software, with a particular focus on term rewriting systems, the theory of functional programs, and methods for program transformation and verification.
The lab lists term rewriting systems, program transformation and program generation, SAT solvers, esoteric programming languages, and automatic music transcription as its main research topics.
Lab projects introduced include NaPS, a pseudo-Boolean constraint solver, and CombSQL+, a combinatorial optimization solver based on SQL.
The lab's website is shared with the Nishida Lab.
