Daniel Bittman

Daniel is a graduate student in the SSRC. His interests are in kernel programming and design, security, non-volatile memory, and highly concurrent programming. His current project is on developing an operating system for non-volatile memories and developing operating system designs and interfaces for better programming and data models in such an environment.
