Research Interests:
Broadly, I am working on combinatorial optimization problems arising in communication networks. I am interested in the design and analysis of approximation algorithms for these problems. In my doctoral thesis, I have investigated several call admission control problems in ring based topologies.

Misc: 

Here is how I looked like till 10.06.2003 and how I look from 11.06.2003.
And, Here is how the members of the BigBoys (our favourite cricket team from IISc days) looked like eight years ago!
I absolutely love traveling. Being in Switzerland is ideal to tour Europe: discounting the visa hassles that a developing country citizen like me has to go through every single time I wish to get outside Switzerland. Here is a list of countries I have visited so far.
