Member of the Technical Staff
Software Engineering Institute
Since February 2004, I’ve been a Member of the Technical Staff at the Software Engineering Institute at Carnegie Mellon University. Prior to that I was a Post Doctoral Fellow and graduate student in the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University, where I was a member of the Fluid Project, lead by Dr. William L. Scherlis.
A list of selected publications is below, or you can download my CV (PDF).
I was on the program committee for Synchronization and Concurrency in Object-Oriented Languages (SCOOL) at OOPSLA 2005.
At the SEI, I am in the Performance Critical Systems group in the Dynamic Systems initiative where I develop architecture analyses and architectural analysis tools for real-time and embedded systems. Primarily I work with the new Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Architecture Analysis and Design Language (AADL).
I still have a collaborative relationship with the Fluid Project whose agenda is to develop static program analysis techniques to assure safety at scale with respect to programmer-declared design intent. A dominant design consideration is that our techniques be adoptable by practicing programmers. I developed for my thesis—and continue to develop—the Fluid tool’s concurrency and effects analyses.
While the Fluid tool is more than a bug finder, it does bring me into close contact with newly discovered bugs.
