# Research Interests
I'm a 4th year Computer Science PhD student at the Ohio State University. Over
the duration of my PhD, I have been researching topics in Programming Languages
such as data race detection, and transactional persistent memory. Research that
I led or assisted resulted in several publications, which are listed below. I
also had the opportunity to teach the course Advanced C Programming, and serve
on the Artifact Evaluation Committees of several conferences.
Outside the school, I build web and mobile applications for fun. Over the years
I have learned and used many programming languages and technologies, including
JavaScript, TypeScript, React, React Native, Python, Java, C, C++, Clojure, and
Haskell. All my projects are open source, and are available on my [Github
page](https://github.com/SeriousBug).
I am an avid Linux user, having been using it full time for the last 7 years. I
manage several small personal servers, and have experience with Bash scripting,
writing SystemD services, and building and using Docker containers.
# Highlighted Projects
<div> <div class="publication">
## image-survey
A web application to run surveys where users compare 2 images to pick the one
they prefer. Uses a Python backend utilizing asyncio capabilities with the Sanic
web server and SQLite. The front end is a React app, written in JavaScript and
Material-UI.

<div class="publication">
## WorkTime
Work-in-progress offline-first mobile app for productivity and time management.
Uses React Native with TypeScript, and a PouchDB database on the client side.
Currently planning to add a backend supported by CouchDB to provide
synchronization capabilities.

<div class="publication">
## Crafty
A transactional persistent memory library, written in C. Provides transactional
data storage capabilities to programs by utilizing existing hardware
transactional memory support of processors, combined with the new non-volatile
memory hardware. Allows programs to store and access data efficiently, and
without the need for additional concurrency synchronization. This is the
corresponding implementation for one of my publications listed below.

## SDP & WDP data race detectors
Data race detection for Java programs using predictive dynamic data race
analyses. Predictive race analysis looks at a single execution of a program to
detect races that may occur in many other executions. Our analyses use data and
control flow dependence to find more data races compared to other analyses. This
is the corresponding implementation for my publication "Dependence Aware,
Unbounded Sound Predictive Race Detection".

My research interests include programming languages, persistent memory (NVM),
dynamic program analysis, and data race detection.
I am currently working on novel methods for providing efficient persistent
transactions with strong guarantees. Our work uses non-volatile memory, such as
Intel Optane Memory, combined with commodity hardware transactional memory to
allow programs to survive power interruptions and crashes, with minimal
performance and scalability impacts.

# Teaching Experience
During Autumn 2017 and Spring 2018 semesters, I had the opportunity to teach the
class [CSE
2451](http://coe-portal.cse.ohio-state.edu/pdf-exports/CSE/CSE-2451.pdf),
Advanced C Programming, at the Ohio State Univerity. The class had around 35
students enrolled for both semesters. I was given the full responsibilities for
the class, including teaching the class, writing assignments and exams, grading,
and holding office hours. I revised the course material I was given, making it
more comprehensive and adding unique insights on building and optimizing
advanced C programs.
The students were satisfied with my teaching, with my Student Evaluation of
Instruction mean scores being 4.6 and 4.4 out of 5 for both semesters, a score
above the university mean for classes of similar size.
I am currently teaching this class again for the Spring 2021 semester.
