Research
My research interests have been on parallel and high performance computing. I have worked on lock minimization in hierarchical applications on multi-core systems, efficient parallelization of various graph algorithms and data compression algorithms on many-core systems (GPUs). My research focus is on the performance optimization of parallel programs.
