Research interests

I am interested in the areas of high-performance compilers and combinatorial optimization. My Ph.D. thesis investigates resource-aware instruction scheduling (thesis.gz). I graduated in May 2001 having worked under supervision of Waleed Meleis, and now work at Hewlett-Packard, Cupertino.

Background

My previous work was in the Northeastern University's College of Computer Science where I earned an M.S. degree in Computer Science (in Programming languages and compilers area). I had worked earlier in Institute of Computer and Communication Systems of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.
