Shot Biography

I received a bachelors of science in computer science in 2007 and masters of science in computer science in 2009 from the University of California Santa Barbara. During my studies as a masters student I worked in the area of theory and wrote a thesis on Antipodal Gray Codes. I am currently a PhD student working under the direction of Michel Raynal at INRIA Rennes where I joined the ASAP team in 2010. The project I am working under is the Transform: Theoretical Foundations of Transactional Memory funded by the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Commission. Currently my research focuses on the design of Software Transactional Memory (STM) and concurrent data structure algorithms.
