We describe a Martin-Löf-style dependent type theory, called Cocon, that 
allows us to mix the intensional function space that is used to represent 
higher-order abstract syntax (HOAS) trees with the extensional function 
space that describes (recursive) computations. We mediate between HOAS 
representations and computations using contextual modal types. Our type 
theory also supports an infinite hierarchy of universes and hence supports 
type-level computation thereby providing metaprogramming and (small-scale) 
reflection. Our main contribution is the development of a Kripke-style 
model for Cocon that allows us to prove normalization. From the 
normalization proof, we derive subject reduction and consistency. Our work 
lays the foundation to incorporate the methodology of logical frameworks 
into systems such as Agda and bridges the longstanding gap between these 
two worlds.
