Research is to teaching as sin is to confession.
Unless you participate in the former,
you have nothing to say in the latter.

Research

My main research interests are in the design and analysis of algorithms for solving theoretical and applied problems in graphs, massive data sets and computer security.
You can find my CV and a list of publications from DBLP, Google Scholar.
