Remove "NOSPAM" from the above address.
I am a graduate student, working with Sally McKee in Cornell's Computer Systems Lab. I am involved in the following projects:
Automated Abstraction-Aware Recognition and Optimization
with Dan Quinlan and Rich Vuduc (LLNL) and Sally McKee (Cornell).
Modeling C++ for Language-Independent Alias Analysis
with Michelle Strout (Colorado State) and Sally McKee (Cornell).
Macrostate Data Clustering
with David Shalloway (Molecular Biology and Genetics; Cornell).
In the past I have worked on
Andrew Grimshaw's
Legion project at the University
of Virginia and with Jay Lepreau's Flux group at the University of Utah, where I was involved in the Netbed network experimentation platform.
Interesting seminar series:
