Introduction

 I am a Professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Western Ontario.    I am currently the Department's Chair.

Research Summary

 My research broadly falls into distributed systems and software engineering.  More specifically I am interested in systems management.  Systems management refers to the operation, administration and maintenance of a computing system.    The goal is to ensure that the system behaves as expected with respect to availability, performance and security - commonly known as Quality of Service (QoS). We take system to include applications, services and devices.  The systems are distributed.  The software engineering aspect is with respect to how make software manageable.  For more information on my research and a list of selected  publications please go to my research lab's webpage.  You can also check out my CV.
