• Research Fellow at Oxford University Computing Laboratory

I received my Ph.D. from Department of Computer Science, Lund University in 2006. My thesis subject was Extensible Compiler Construction under the supervision of Görel Hedin. My current work extends that work to extensible development environments and in particular to composable refactorings.

Most of my research uses the meta-compiler system JastAdd as an experimental platform. One of the main results of my thesis work is the JastAdd Extensible Java Compiler, a declarative object-oriented framework used to implement a complete Java 1.4 compiler with Java 5 as modular language extensions.
