Hi, I'm a PhD student in the School
of Computing at the University of Utah
. I am interested in formal methods
for the verification of software and hardware. In particular, I'm interested
in protocol verification, parameterized systems, refinement techniques,
and abstract interpretation. My advisor is Dr. Ganesh Gopalakrishnan
. I am currently working on two projects. The first is an investigation of
techniques for the verification of cache coherence protocols against memory
models, and the second is about finding new ways to calculate dependence
relations for partial order reduction algorithms in the context of
process-less system descriptions, such as that used by the explicit-state
enumeration based model checker Murphi.
