Biography

I am a Post Doctoral Research Associate at the School of Computing Science. I work on investigating and developing methods to utilise capability enhanced CPU processors to enhance the security of Virtual Machines. The current work is done in the context of the EPSRC funded CapableVMs project.

I completed my PhD from the University of Glasgow. My PhD thesis titled, "Opportunistic Acceleration of Array-Centric Python Computation in Heterogeneous Environments" investigates autotmatic parallelistion and JIT compilation of Python loop nests in CPU/GPU systems.

Please visit my personal page for more details.
