Biography

I am a Reader in Programming Language Implementation at the School of Computing Science. My particular research focus is on systems software, including virtual machines, system security and programming language runtimes.

Previously, I was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Manchester, where I worked on Java runtime systems for speculative multicore parallelism. I completed my PhD in 2006 at the University of Cambridge. My thesis topic was Static Program Analysis based on Virtual Register Renaming.

I am a senior member of the ACM and a fellow of the BCS.
