I am interested in network protocols and architecture, distributed systems and algorithms, routing, and graph theory. I also am interested in stream processing
and investigating ways to improve software quality.

- Research Assistant, Computer Networks Research Group, UMass. (Summer 2008 - present)
Advisor: Professor James Kurose
- Smart Grids Project: Studying synchrophasor sensors, which measure voltage and current along transmission lines and at electric substations. Formulating
new problems for sensor placement in which sensors are placed near each other in order to cross-validate sensor measurements.
- False Routing State Project: Investigated how to recover from scenarios where false routing state is injected and has spread throughout a network of
routers (e.g., by misconfigured or compromised routers). Designed, implemented, and evaluated recovery algorithms using simulation and analysis.
- Research Assistant, Database and Information Management Lab, UMass. (Spring 2006 - Spring 2007)
Advisor: Professor Yanlei Diao
- Developed new algorithms and implementation for the SASE stream processing engine (15K+ lines of code) to evaluate continuous queries in real-time.
- Built simulator from scratch and evaluated algorithms using real RFID stream data and stock ticker data.
- Built working prototype of SASE that collects, cleans, and processes raw RFID data to support real-time queries. Demonstrated prototype at CIDR 2007 in a simulated retail store environment.
- IBM - Software Engineer. Westborough, MA USA. (June 2004 - Aug. 2005)
- Worked on Websphere Metadata Server (WMS).
- Designed and implemented framework to enforce insert, delete, and update semantics for WMS.
- Developed command line tool for generating database schemas and object relational mapping files from custom Eclipse Modeling Framework meta-models.
- Added functionality to Metadata Explorer GUI (a tool used by developers and QA) implemented as an Eclipse plug-in. In charge of internal releases Metadata Explorer.
- IBM - Intern. Westborough, MA USA. (Summer 2007)
- Worked on Websphere Metadata Server.
- Developed Java code to implement pagination algorithm (e.g., determine how many database rows to return to the client with each query), in charge of merging code branches, fixed and verified bugs.
- Sun Microsystems - Intern. Marlborough, MA USA. (Summer 2003)
- Worked on Enterprise Storage Manager (ESM).
