CURRENT RESEARCH
Design of fundamental financial systems
I am working on several unrelated things. The most challenging is the design of computational core for financial trading venues, such as electronic exchanges, within the paradigm which enables formal reasoning about system properties. We first formalized the sequential core (surprisingly still state-of-the-art in electronic markets), and I am currently working on the design of a parallel and concurrent core, which is more natural computational model for trading platforms, and improves the sequential model without loosing any of the desirable properties.
