I moved to Microsoft Research (Silicon Valley) on October 2006.

My new homepage is here
I am a PhD candidate in The
School of Engineering Computer Science in the Hebrew University of Jerusalem under
the supervision of Prof. Noam
Nisan. I have B.Sc. in Computer Science
and Economics from the
My research interests center in the border of Theory of Computer
Science, Game Theory and Microeconomic Theory. In particular, I am interested
in the design of electronic marketplaces, and in the combined research of
computational aspects (like communication complexity and approximation
algorithms) and game-theoretic concepts.
