Research Interests

My interests include object-oriented programming languages, attribute grammars, pattern matching, analysis of programming languages, type systems for programming languages, extensible languages and programming environments.

In particular, I am currently actively involved in two specific areas:

  1. research in system to capture patterns of aliasing in object-oriented programs in order to avoid concurrency errors and abstraction leaks.
  2. research in the formal description of language semantics using attribute grammars, and how these description can be implemented in software tools.

Activities

I am supported by a five year subcontract from NASA (HDCP) through CMU starting 2002. I am collaborating with the Fluid/HDCP project of William Scherlis.

I am serving as co-chair of LDTA 2005. I have served on the program committees of FTfJP 2004 FTJP 2003, LDTA 2004, FOAL 2004, FOOL 10 and ECOOP 2002 and on the Intercontinental Workshop on Aliasing of Object-Oriented Systems, IWAOOS '99 affiliated with ECOOP '99 in Lisbon (June 1999).

A listing of papers, articles and reports is available.

I am a proponent of using AFS at UWM.

Classes

In Spring 2005, I am teaching two courses:

In the past semesters I have also taught:
