Research

I am currently working on M2 which is a network architecture for wireless Internet access. I am also looking at specific ways to improve performance in emerging wireless scenarios such as multi-hop mesh networks and vehicular wifi access.

During my undergrad, I was involved in research related to MPLS/GMPLS, restoration routing, and resource allocation. Details of this work are available here.
