ABOUT ME

I am a PhD candidate at the School of Computing and Engineering, University of Missouri, Kansas City. My advisor is Dr. Deep Medhi and co-advisor is Dr. Ken Mitchell. My primary research interests span Internet Traffic Measurement, Analysis and Modeling and have been working in close association with Broadband Wireless Group, Sprint Corporation, since May of 2000. I am also interested in Network Security and Survivability. You can visit the website for NeTReL, the research lab I am associated with and my rough schedule.

I was at Cambridge (UK) from May’05-Aug’05 for my summer internship at DANTE. I also had the opportunity to work at France Telecom R&D center in Sophia Antipolis (France) from Sep’05-Nov’05 as a research intern.

I completed my M.S. in Computer Science from University of Missouri-Kansas City, and got my Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology-Roorkee (formerly University of Roorkee), India.
