HASLab – High-Assurance Software Laboratory
The main goal of this centre is to produce reliable software systems in contexts where the careful consideration of characteristics such as correctness, responsiveness, robustness and security is compulsory, since they are typically subject to certification. HASLab develops integrated research along three lines, and approaches problems by taking advantage of the synergy between them: formal methods for software development, dependable distributed systems and information security. 
Coordinator: Manuel Barbosa
Assistant Coordinator: Alcino Cunha
