Hi, I am Christopher Kenna.

I am a former student at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in the Department of Computer Science.

I was a member of the real-time systems group while a student at UNC. I also contributed to the LITMUS-RT project, a real-time extension to the Linux kernel.

My email address is cjk@cs.unc.edu. I would be happy to hear from you.
