Christopher A. Gantz Lecturer in Computer Engineering University of Denver Department of Engineering

I am interested in the design and implementation of operating  systems. My research involves investigating ways to acurately measure and characterize the performance of soft real-time application workloads (e.g. multimedia and virtual environments) executing on real-time operating  systems to determine what operating system subsystem (i.e. memory, I/O, file systems, etc.) abstractionsand /or mechanisms need to be invented or modified to make the operating system more efficient  and responsive for  soft real-time application workloads.
