Research

My research is focused on computer science education in the context of operating systems, compilers, programming languages, and the web. I am particularly interested in teaching tools and platforms for both educators as well as students. This includes auto-grading, novel/modern teaching methods, use of technology in assignments and class and their delivery. I am also interested in tools that make our lives more productive and easier.
