Programming Methods Laboratory 1

The Programming Methods Laboratory (LAMP) at EPFL focuses on advancing programming language design to address the increasing complexity of software systems. They work on software composition, exploring how to build structures from simple parts, connect components effectively, and ensure scalability. LAMP's research contributes to the development of Scala, a language designed for concise, elegant, and type-safe programming. They are known for projects like Dotty, the next-generation Scala compiler, and Scala.js, a platform for Scala to JavaScript compilation. LAMP offers opportunities for students to engage in semester projects and internships, emphasizing topics like reactive programming, parallelism, and advanced compiler construction.
