Research Interests

My research interests are in computer architecture, especially the hardware/software interface and cooperation to improve the design of parallel system architectures. I am interested in designing novel and efficient hardware/software cooperative techniques to overcome fundamental performance, security, robustness, reliability, and efficiency challenges in current and future computer systems.

Some of my current research interests/projects include:

  • Resource management, fairness, and quality-of-service in multi-core systems
  • Scalable Memory Systems
  • Computer architectures for robust and secure operating systems (OS), OS/architecture interaction
  • Architectural support for high-level/safe/managed programming languages (PL), PL/architecture interaction
  • Fault and bug tolerant architectures
  • Latency-tolerant architectures
  • Architectural Support for Software Productivity: Support for Object-Oriented Languages and Managed Runtime Systems
  • Heterogeneous Systems
  • Enabling and Exploiting Emerging Technologies
