===== About Me =====
My name is Paul Leger (but I am chilean!). I'm a PhD, which was guided by [[http://www.dcc.uchile.cl/~etanter|Prof. Eric Tanter]] at Pleiad lab and Center for Advanced Research in Education [[http://www.ciae.uchile.cl|CIAE]]). In addition, I am an assistant professor at [[http://www.ucn.cl|Católica del Norte University]]
===== Short Research Description =====
Although the name of my thesis, [[http:/pleiad.cl/otm|Opening Up Trace-Based Mechanisms]], defines my keywords such as Trace-Based Mechanisms like [[http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1094839|Tracematches]] and [[http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=253431|Open Implementations]], I am also interested in different topics related to programming languages such as the modularity, abstractions, and different approaches (from the functional programming to aspect-oriented programming).
