My major research deals with the topics related to the fields of
Algorithms Design, Data communication and Data
Structures. I'm interested in determining computational difficulty
of solving certain specific problem or families of problems.
The problems that I am concerned with are fundamental
optimization problems that have applications in transportation,
station placement, communication, facility location, graph theory,
statistics, selection, geometric pattern matching, layout of VLSI
circuits and enumeration.
While a part my research is based on a
standard sequential deterministic model of computation, I am also
interested in both parallel and distributed models of computation
and the use of probabilistic algorithms. Last several years, I am
working in the area of mobile wireless networks and security. My
main interests there are to discover the topological nature and
combinatorial properties of the networks problems that deal with routing, switching, scheduling,
location tracking, distributed computation, sending messages and
connectivity of the users.
No pain - no gain!!!
