Research.Interests
I'm fascinated by almost all the fields in computer science. My main focus is currently on systems research, more specifically distributed systems, grid computing, service orchestration, web services, transactions and many/multi core systems. But I'm always in the watch for new/interesting topics to quest my knowledge thirst.
