Welcome! I am a Professor of Computer Science at the Ryerson University, which I have joined in 2009.

My previous posts include University of Manitoba in Winipeg, MB, where I worked from 2003 to 2009; The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong, China (
Department of Information and Systems Management), from 1998 to 2003; and University of Belgrade, Serbia (Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Department of Computer Science), from 1994 to 1998.

I received my PhD in Computer Science from the University of Belgrade, Serbia (then part of Yugoslavia), in 1993. The thesis entitled Automatic Generation of Database Applications from Formal Specifications was done under the supervision of Prof. Branislav Lazarević and Prof. Dušan Velašević.
