Research

My main research interests are in the general area of algorithms and data structures, particularly combinatorial algorithms and probabilistic algorithms - the latter being closely linked with collaborative work I have involved in on random graphs and random graph algorithms. I am also interested in programming and programming languages. Recently I have been doing work on heuristic game playing, models for Web dynamics, and the development of algorithms for various problems in bioinformatics. As well as in the aforementioned areas, I have published papers on numerical linear algebra, combinatorial matrix theory, matroid algorithms, and relational database theory.

I am a member of the Algorithms, Verification and Software Research Group
