Research Interests

Managed runtime environments (MREs) with focus on automatic memory management, dynamic compilation, and runtime support for class loading, synchronization, and threading. Parallel and concurrent garbage collection (GC), operating system support for GC. Interaction between multiple MREs co-located on multi-core platforms in the context of cross-MRE synchronization, class loading, and GC. Type-safe, transparent shared memory for efficient inter-MRE communication and coordination.

My advisor is Prof. Chandra Krintz.
