The Hompage of Yossi Lev


I am a PhD candidate in Computer Science at Brown University, and my advisor is Prof. Maurice Herlihy
I am also an intern in the Scalable Synchronization Research Group at Sun Microsystems Laboratories.

Research Interest

My main interest are multiprocessor synchronization and concurrent programming.
More specifically, I'm interested in developing and exploring robust easy-to-use
infrastructures for concurrent programming, like Transactional Memory, and also
in developing optimized ad-hoc solutions for widely used concurrent data structures.
