Dimitrios Vytiniotis
POST DOC RESEARCHER
.
I am a Post Doc Researcher in the Programming Principles and Tools group. Here is some information about me. I can be reached at dimitris AT microsoft DOT com.
Before joining MSR, I was working towards my PhD on Programming Languages at the University of Pennsylvania.
NEWS: I updated my web page! Also, check this slightly controversial idea.
