Research Interests

My current research interests are in programming and designing multiprocessor and multicore systems. For programming, my interests span languages, compilers, tools, and operating systems for both general- and special-purpose systems. For design, my interests are in design of multicore architectures and mixed-processor/reconfigurable-logic systems as well as simulation of parallel programs on multiprocessor hardware.

See my research group's page for more details.
