Research and Projects

My research interests span several areas of computing. My work primarily centers on building tools to help those who design, build, or teach complex systems, with particular focus on Embedded, Real-time, and Interrupt-Driven Systems, Programming Languages and Software Engineering.
The Embedded XINU Project is a culmination of both my research and teaching interests.
I am the Principal Investigator for our NSF-funded REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) site, "Computation Across the Disciplines". I am a ringleader for the PUMP-CS Project, working to increase the number of qualified high school computer science teachers in the upper Midwest.
