Research

My research in formal methods involves calculi for mobile processes.

  • Check out ICALP 2012, the 39th International Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming! (Submission deadline Feb 21, 2012.)
  • Check out CONCUR 2012, the 23rd International Conference on Concurrency Theory! (Submission deadline first half of April 2012.)
  • Check out NordSec 2012, the 17th Nordic Conference in Secure IT Systems! (Submission deadline early June 2012.)

I am the Ph.D. co-advisor of Ramunas Gutkovas, Palle Raabjerg, Johannes Åman Pohjola and Frédéric Haziza. I was the advisor of Magnus Johansson (graduated May 2010) and Kidane Yemane (graduated January 2006), and the co-advisor of Jesper Bengtsson (graduated June 2010).

I run projects in ProFun, funded by the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research 2009-2013, and in UPMARC, a Linnaeus centre funded 2008-2017.

I have a list of selected papers and a brief CV available.
