Luca Andrea Cardelli FRS is an Italian computer scientist who is a research professor at the University of Oxford, UK.[6][2][7][8] Cardelli is well known for his research in type theory and operational semantics.[9][10] Among other contributions, in programming languages, he helped design the language Modula-3, implemented the first compiler for the (non-pure) functional language ML, defined the concept of typeful programming, and helped develop the experimental language Polyphonic C#.[5][11][12][13][14]
