About

After working as a research assistant at the Institute of Computer Languages and DTU Compute in Denmark, I am currently a post-doctoral researcher at Oracle Labs in Brisbane, Australia.

I can still be reached under my complang email address.

Projects

T-CREST: Time-Predictable Multi-Core Architecture for Embedded Systems

The T-CREST project proposes novel solutions for time-predictable multi-core architectures that are optimized for the worst-case instead of the average-case execution time.

EPICOpt: Optimal Code Generation for Explicitly Parallel Processors

This project aims to apply techniques from operations research to tackle some of the hard problems that arise during compilation.
