Dissertation

On March 3, 2011 I defended my dissertation for the degree of Ph.D.
Specification-Based Verification and Testing of Open Distributed Systems [Pdf]
A presentation of the dissertation may be found here. [Pdf]
The trial lecture was: "Compositional Analysis Techniques for Distributed (asynchronous) Systems Survey and Research Challenges" [Pdf]

I currently work for Det Norske Veritas as Principal Consultant, Information Risk Management

From January 2005 until May 2010 I was research fellow at the Department of Informatics at the University of Oslo. I belonged to the research group: Precise Modeling and Analysis of Dependable Systems and worked on the CREOL project.

I finished my "hovedfag" (masters) in informatics in the spring term of 2003 with the thesis "A Formal and Executable Model for Comparing XML Documents"

I previously studied philosophy and received my "hovedfag" degree (1996) with the thesis "On mathematical truth" (in Norwegian). I were for some years editor and cofounder of a journal for philosophical logic. NJPL. In my sparetime I among other things do Kendô.

Research interests

  • Modelling of concurrent and distributed systems, formal methods for program verification, compositional reasoning, testing, rewriting logic, XML.
  • Programming languages: object-oriented programming, functional programming, program analysis, foundations of programming languages.
