Associate professor ("docent") at Linköping University. I look for ways to extend automated verification techniques. Interests:

• model checking, abstract interpretation
• parameterized verification: concurrent, distributed systems
• concurrent and heap manipulating data structures: fine grained, lock free
• cache coherence protocols and memory consistency
• timing side-channel attacks

I co-investigate, with Prof.Sudipta Chattopadhyay, the Verification and Validation of Side-channel Freedom project project. The project members are grateful for the generous support of a highly competitive three-years grant from the Singapore Ministry of Education (MOE).

I am looking for clever and hard working students to carry out several exciting Master's and Bachelor theses. Contact me if interested or want to discuss a project.
