Kiwamu Okabe

My name is Kiwamu Okabe. “岡部 究” in Japanese.

Brief

I launched my career on developing embedded devices at Ricoh Company, Ltd, and also learned application design using functional language such like Haskell. I found Metasepi project what is trying to apply strong type to embedded programming. For my first challenging, I developed an embedded Haskell compiler named Ajhc, and published some research papers. Secondly, I chose ATS language as embedded functional language, and found Japan ATS User Group what holds Japanese translations about the language. Thirdly, I chose VeriFast verification tool, and translated the documentation into Japanese.

Today, I’m writing Takibi language to design embedded application.

Metasepi is very experimental and ambitious project, however I believe that it also introduces an by-product ``the technology to design real software with predictable manpower and safety’’ regardless of embedded domain.

My Projects

Metasepi

Challenge to create an open-source Unix-like operating system designed with strong type such as ML or Haskell.

Takibi language

My own compiler for safe embedded software.

Japan VeriFast User Group

An user group for VeriFast program verifier promotion of utilization. Translated VeriFast documents into Japanese.

Japan ATS User Group (JATS-UG)

An user group for ATS language promotion of utilization. Translated ATS documents into Japanese.

Ajhc Haskell compiler

Extend and add embedded features to Jhc Haskell Compiler. And also a Haskell compiler customized for Metasepi.

Debian Project

I’m a Debian Maintainer, also maintain some packages.

Please read The Debian Manifesto (日本語訳) , if you don’t know Debian.
