About Me

Hi there. I’m Pengxiang Huang, I am a Ph.D. student at University of Rochester in the department of Computer Science, advised by Prof. John Criswell

My current research interests focus on memory-safe compilers, specifically leveraging whole-program analysis alongside compiler instrumentation and hardware intrinsics to prevent and detect spatial and temporal memory errors with low overhead.
