I'm a Ph.D. student in Computer
Sciences at University
of Wisconsin-Madison. My interests are in computer systems and networking. These days I am mostly working on improving the performance and usability of wireless networks.
I work in the Wisconsin Wireless and NetworkinG Systems (WiNGS)
Laboratory, under the guidance of Prof. Suman Banerjee. I recently received a Microsoft Research Fellowship (2009-10).

Available as: Poster MC2R Abstract Full version: TechReport Work ExperienceSummer Intern. Microsoft Research. Bangalore, India. May - July, 2008. Worked on energy efficiency of smart phones. My work consisted of: (1) Profiling experiments -- Measurement of per-packet RX/TX power profiles (wireless interface and host) of iPAQ 6965/Samsung i780 under a variety of scenarios. Evaluation of the effect of dynamic frequency/voltage scaling and packet-compression techniques on energy consumption. (2) Network-Assisted Power Management -- We developed schemes for smart management of "sleep" durations of wireless interfaces using network support and worked on the implementation of proposed schemes on Windows SoftAP wireless driver. Summer Intern. Bell Laboratories. Murray Hill, NJ. June - August, 2006. Worked on network coding for wireless mesh networks. We developed a framework for computing the throughput of network coding on any wireless network topology and any pattern of concurrent unicast traffic sessions. We also proposed coding-aware routing which gave a performance improvement of 40% compared to opportunistic coding and 70% when compared to traditional routing. Research Assistant. Cylab, Carnegie Mellon. Pittsburgh, PA. August - December, 2005. Worked on the development of a router configuration checker for Juniper routers as a member of Project M3 (Mining, Modeling & Monitoring of Core Routers). Worked on Transparent Switching (TS) Network Architecture, to provide a unified control plane to TDM & packet networks and QoS to real time applications. Research Engineer. Ultra Wideband MAC Team, Samsung Software Bangalore, India. July 2004 - July 2005. Involved in the design & implementation of the evolving MBOA (Multi Band OFDM Alliance) Medium Access Control standard. Developed MAC Libraries, Layer Management Entity, Power Control & Testing kernel modules. Summer Intern. University of Duisburg-Essen Essen, Germany. May - July, 2003. Worked on the encapsulation of Extended Observer Pattern using Aspect-Oriented Techniques - AspectJ, JAC (Java Aspect Components), PROSE (PROgrammable Service Extenstions).
