Statement of Research Interests:

Research is in the areas of computer architecture and compiler optimization, with emphasis on novel and post-Moore ways to compute.  This includes analog, neuromorphic, quantum and reversible computing.

Statement of Teaching Interests:

Interest is in undergraduate education with emphasis on computer architecture and systems core courses. In addition, a second interest is in senior-level/intro-graduate courses on computer architecture including, but not limited to, conventional, analog, neuromorphic, quantum and reversible computing.
