Perspective Students

I am looking for motivated students who are interested in systems research. If you are not at Columbia, please apply here. If you are already a student at Columbia, drop me a message and we can schedule a time to chat in person.

Research

My research interests are in operating systems, software error detection, security, and storage systems. My past work has focused on detecting serious errors in large, complex software. I have used model checking to find storage system errors that vaporize your entire file systems, symbolic execution to generate malicious disk images that take over control of your Linux kernel, and static analysis to detect Linux kernel security holes.
