Jingshu Chen

PhD Candidate, Michigan State University

I am currently a PhD candidate of Computer Science at Michigan State University. My advisor is Professor Sandeep Kulkarni. Previously, I got M.S. from Chinese Academy of Science in 2007 and B.S. from Xiamen University in 2004.

My research lies generally in the area of software systems, with a focus on building reliable software systems and exploiting formal methods techniques to ensure the correctness of software systems.The ultimate goal of my research is to improve the reliability, availability and scalability of software defined systems.


Research:

One of the research challenges in ensuring the correctness of software systems is guaranteeing the reliability of softwares in the presence of unexpected faults. To address this challenge, my research goal is to build a comprehensive framework that helps designers building reliable softwares in an automatic way. To this end, in my doctoral work, I have developed new algorithms and theory as well as practical tools to advance the state-of-the-art research.
