I am a graduate student in the Computer Science Department at University of Southern California, Los Angeles. My advisor is
Dr. Ramesh Govindan. I am part of the Embedded Networks
Laboratory . Before joining USC, I worked with Dr. Murat Alanyali   at
  ECE@Boston University   for two years.
I received my B. Tech and M. Tech degrees in Mathematics and Computer Science from the
Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi   in 2003. I went to Birla Public School, Pilani and Delhi Public School, R.K. Puram for my high
school.
My research interests are primarily in Distributed Systems and Networking . For my PhD thesis, I am focussing on
Sensor Networks . (In very near future I intend to put more information about the projects that I am working on:)
I am also interested in :
Algorithms.
Application of Game Theory to distributed systems.
I ran the Los Angeles Marathon in 4:51:00. Pictures from race day at the USC Marathon Team webpage.
I am a passionate soccer fan. I played for my university team during my undergraduate years and
even won the Intra-mural soccer tournament while at Boston University!!! I usually get my daily update of soccer news and trivia from
yahoo sports and Goal!!!. My favorite teams are
Barcelona and Argentina. 2006 being the World Cup
year, things should be pretty exciting this summer.
As a sign of my continuing "Boston" hang-over, I also support the Boston RedSox and the
New England Patriots .
Biking:
Under the tutelage of Om "endurance" Gnawali , I plan to pursue biking quite actively post
LA Marathon.
