Assistant Professor, IIIT-Delhi

Okhla Phase-III
New Delhi, Delhi, India -- 110020
I am an assistant professor at IIIT-Delhi, with joint affiliation at both Computer Science and Engineering as well as Electronics and Communication Engineering departments. My research interests are in the domain of edge computing, video streaming and dynamic spectrum access. I finished my PhD at Stony Brook University where my advisor was Prof. Samir R. Das. I have also spent a year working at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm as a postdoctoral researcher working with Prof. James Gross.
In general, my work focuses on applications of algorithms and machine learning techniques to improve the reliability and scalability of different wireless network applications. My works have been published in venues like IEEE INFOCOM, ACM SOSR, ACM IMC and IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking. For more details on my work, you can refer to my CV, my Google Scholar webpage or my research statement.
