Research interests:
My research interests are in compilers both for embedded and general-purpose
systems, as well as computer security. Specific current interests include:
- Binary rewriting This effort is concerned with how to
rewrite binaries with the least amount of restrictions, and in the most
general manner.
Support: This project is partially supported by National
Science Foundation (NSF) grant #0720683.
- Automatic parallelization. This project aims to
automatically convert serial programs into parallel programs.
Support: This project is partially supported by the Defense
Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) under an AACE contract.
- Compilation for fine-grained architectures. Supporting
pre-fetching and nested parallelism in a compiler for the XMT machine, a
fine-grained architecture being built at UMD.
Support: This project is partially supported by National
Science Foundation grant #0834373.
- Memory management for embedded systems. How to allocate
data and instructions in embedded systems to specific memories such as
scratch-pad memories and lockable caches.
Support: This project is partially supported by National
Science Foundation (NSF) grant #0720683, and in the past by NSF grants
#0133519 and #0410565.
- Security policy enforcement. How to enforce security
policies and access restrictions using a binary rewriter.
I also have worked on projects related to memory safety and real-time
wireless media-access protocols in the past.
