Honours/Masters projects

Here is a collection of Honours/Masters project proposals for 2008.

Research

I am currently Chief Investigator on the ARC Discovery Project, Early Detection of Computer Incompatabilities in Time-dependent Computer Architectures. This project is funded from 2006-2008.

Previously I was a co-Chief Investigator on the ARC Discovery Project Verified Emulation of Legacy Mission Computer Systems (VELMS). This project was funded from 2004-2006.

From 2002-2004 I worked as a Research Fellow on the ARC Discovery Project Compilation of Specifications. From mid-1999 to early 2002 I worked as a Research Fellow on the Refinement Calculus for Logic Programming (RefLP) project, an ARC funded project.

In 2000 I was awarded a Doctorate, after completing a PhD in the School of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering at the University of Queensland.  My thesis, titled  A Unified Approach to Adapting and Retrieving Formally Specified Components for Reuse , can be viewed from here as a series of pdf files. Some of the concepts explored in the thesis include: Component-based reuse, specification matching, formal methods, retrieval and refinement. Part of this project involved extending the toolset for CARE to support component-based research.

Prior to starting my PhD I worked as a Research Assistant on the CARE project.

Here is a list of my publications sorted by year of publication.


Other information


Here is a link to a list of pages relating to formal methods, logic programming, reusable components and some other stuff.

Here is some useful(?) systems related stuff.
