I welcome and appreciate any feedback or queries you may have on them.
A request:
If you intend to cite my work, I request you to kindly use both the initial letters ("K" and "C") in my name.
Attributing my work to "..., K. Shashidhar, ... " or "..., Shashidhar, K., ..." instead of "..., K.C. Shashidhar, ..." or "..., Shashidhar, K.C., ..." in your reference is not correct by the naming convention that I identify myself with. Referring to authors by including all the initials in their names is common in humanities, but less so in engineering and science. Thanks!
