Andrey was a PhD student in the School of Computer Science at the University of Manchester. He was a member of the APT group July 2013 - June 2017, supervised by Mikel Luján and Antoniu Pop. During his PhD, Andrey researched scalable synchronization algorithms on cache coherent many-core systems and opportunities for HW/SW co-design and co-specialisation of Java VMs and general-purpose CPUs. His research interests are compilers, binary translation, runtime systems, computer architecture, and HW/SW co-design.

Software
MaxSim - a simulation platform for managed applications based on Maxine VM and ZSim.
Andrey developed this platform in 2015-2017 to do HW/SW co-design research and characterization of managed workloads.
cbarriers - a framework for evaluating different barrier synchronization algorithms.
Andrey devloped this framework in 2013-2015 to evaluate hybrid barrier with other known barrier synchronization algorithms.
Maxine VM - a meta-circular research VM.
Andrey was an active contributor to this project in 2014-2017. Specifically, he improved utilization of the Graal optimising compiler by the Maxine VM resulting in 1.64x speedup on the DaCapo benchmarks and better overall stability.
