Research

The focus of my research is to make networks adaptable, evolvable, self-managed, and cost-efficient as well as to improve their performance. To that end, my research interests lie in several areas of Networking including congestion control, routing, protocol design, router/switch architectures in both wired as well as wireless networks. My most recent work has been to design a congestion control protocol -- Rate Control Protocol (RCP) -- that reduces user-response time by an order of magnitude over today's mechanisms. This is a part of the 100x100 Project.

• I defended my thesis, here is the announcement and the slides
• The 100x100 Project is answering the exciting question: If we were to redesign the Internet on a clean slate, knowing what we know today, how would we do it?
