What I've been up to:




Conference program or organizing committees:


NEW:  I am organizing the FMCAD 2013 Student Forum, an opportunity for graduate students to present their (early, unfinished) research to the Formal Methods community.



Brief bio:

  • 2011 - present: Assistant Professor, Northeastern University, College of Computer and Information Science
  • 2009 - 2011: Research Assistant, Oxford University, Department of Computer Science (formerly "Computing Laboratory"), UK
  • 2007 - 2009: Lecturer and Postdoc, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH), Zurich, Switzerland
  • 2007, 2005: Ph.D. & M.S., University of Texas, Austin (supervised by E. Allen Emerson, who co-won the 2007 ACM Turing Award)
  • 1998: Invited Researcher, Advanced Telecommunications Research (ATR), Nara, Japan

Awards:




General research interests:

  • Software verification, such as using predicate abstraction, SAT- and SMT solvers, decision procedures, interpolation;
  • Infinite-state system verification, such as modeling and analyzing arbitrarily replicated multi-threaded programs via counter systems and Petri nets;
  • Automata theory in formal verification, such as for LTL model checking

If you are a student and the above sound appealing to you (or you think they do, but you are not sure what they mean), read more about my current research under the links provided on the left. Then drop me an email or come by.
