JOBS
I am always interested in working with talented people. Currently, I
am working in the areas of real-time and embedded systems,
high-level language synthesis for reconfigurable hardware,
programming language design, garbage collection, and language run-time systems.
Graduating Ph.D. students can apply for either permanent or post-doctoral positions, and Ph.D. candidates and exceptional undergraduates can apply for summer internship. For interns, my goal is for the project to lead to papers published in top-quality conferences and to also form a part of the student's thesis, if desired.
If you are interested in working with
me, please see information about

Careers and then send me
your resume.
