Current AY: 2022/23
I’m teaching CS1007 Computer System Fundamentals in Semester 1, and CS4202 Computer Architecture in Semester 2.
If you need to get in touch with me in relation to my teaching activities, try and ping me on Teams in the first instance, or send me an email.
Previous AYs:

Previous Teaching
When I worked at the University of Edinburgh, I taught Operating Systems and The Internet of Things: Systems, Security, and the Cloud. For the OS course, I developed a new OS from scratch (in C++) to aid with teaching: https://github.com/tspink/infos.
Student Supervision
If you want to study for a PhD with me, please get in touch! I’m looking for students in the area of virtualisation, dynamic binary translation, just-in-time compilation, and dynamic language runtimes.
