Secondly, I want to extend my gratitude to John Longley, who has

been an admirable second supervisor and who has stimulated my

Thirdly, I want to thank my academic brother Simon Fowler. You have
|
||||||
|
always been a good friend and a pillar of inspiration. Regardless of
|
||||||
|
academic triumphs and failures, we have always been able to laugh at
|
||||||
|
it all and have our own fun.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
I also want to thank KC Sivaramakrishnan for taking a genuine
|
||||||
|
interest in my research early on and for inviting me to come spend
|
||||||
|
some time at OCaml Labs in Cambridge, where I met Anil Madhavapeddy,
|
||||||
|
Stephen Dolan, and Leo White. I have learned so much from each of
|
||||||
|
them and I have been fortunate to enjoy productive and long-standing
|
||||||
|
collaboration with them. Also, thanks to Gemma Gordon, who I had the
|
||||||
|
pleasure of sharing an office with during one of my stints at OCaml
|
||||||
|
Labs.

I am very grateful for the fruitful and long-standing collaboration
|
||||||
|
with Robert Atkey that I have been fortunate to enjoy. Robert has
|
||||||
|
been a continuous source of inspiration.

Thanks to James McKinna for always asking intellectually
|
||||||
|
interesting, and at times challenging, questions. I have appreciate
|
||||||
|
our many conversations even though I spent days, weeks, sometimes
|
||||||
|
months, and in extreme cases years to think about answers to your
|
||||||
|
questions. Also thanks to Brian Campbell and J. Garrett Morris for
|
||||||
|
putting up with all the supervision meetings that I had with Sam in
|
||||||
|
their shared office 5.28.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Speaking of offices, I also want to thank my peers from my own
|
||||||
|
office 5.21 for stimulating my general interest in computer science
|
||||||
|
and mathematics beyond programming languages. Also, thanks to my CDT
|
||||||
|
cohort, I want to particularly emphasise my gratitude to Amna
|
||||||
|
Shahab, who has been a truly valuable friend.
