About me

I am an Associate Professor (Reader) at The University of Manchester and a Chief Engineer at Pierer Innovation.

I currently lead the TornadoVM and MaxineVM projects and I am the technical coordinator of the Horizon Europe/UKRI AERO project. In addition I am the PI of the EU Horizon Europe/UKRI P2CODE, TANGO, and ENCRYPT projects.

My work focuses on both hardware and software. In particular, I am interested in embedded systems, micro-architecture, hw/sw co-designed CPUs and VMs, Heterogeneous Acceleration, Compilers, Virtual Machines and Garbage Collection.
