Hi Folks! I'm Federico Bruzzone. Presently a PhD Candidate in Computer Science at the University of Milan. I have a strong passion for Programming Languages and Compilers, and I'm currently diving into AI (ML/DL) compilers. Outside of Computer Science, I'm a Sound Engineer and Music Composer. You can also check my GitHub, the Posts section, and the Research page. Feel free to download my CV.

While I listen to Jazz and Country music, I actively contribute to the open-source ecosystem. In addition to my personal projects, I have a strong affinity for Rust and have contributed to the Rust compiler. More recently, I have also been involved in the LLVM/MLIR community as a contributor and reviewer.

Eter Programming Language Series

A Friendly Tour of Substructural, Uniqueness, Ownership, and Capabilities Types — and more!

The third post of the Eter programming language series. A friendly tour of the type-theoretic landscape behind memory safety. Starting from the logical roots of substructural logic, it walks through linear, affine, and uniqueness types, then visits regions, effects, capabilities, typestate, and the latest work on reachability and separation types.

Mutable Value Semantics (MVS) or Ownership & Borrowing: A Trade-off Analysis

The second post of the Eter programming language series. It explores the trade-offs between Mutable Value Semantics and Ownership & Borrowing, examining friction points in Rust, Hylo, and Swift while searching for common ground between the two memory models.

The Mutable Value Semantics (MVS): A Non-superficial Study

The first post of the Eter programming language series. While this post is part of the series, it is not a part of the Eter language itself. The post is a non-superficial study on the MVS, trying to understand its limitations.
