Alex Loh

I am a Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Texas at Austin. My advisor is Dr William Cook.

My main research area is domain-specific languages and model-driven engineering. I am particularly interested in the problem of composing DSLs (and models) to create a reusable library of languages. I have also worked extensively on program differencing and dynamic program analysis.

I am currently working on Enso, a self-describing language workbench based on model interpretation.

Before I was a graduate student, I spent many years as a software engineer, mostly in the military simulation domain modeling tanks, artillery, battleships and Lanchester's equations. Outside of computer science, I am an active Toastmaster and a former national youth Bridge player.
