Biography: I received PhD from the Department of Electrical Engineering at UCLA in June 2007 as a graduate student researcher in the Networked and Embedded Systems Laboratory. I received my Masters in Embedded Computing Systems from UCLA in June 2003. Prior to joining UCLA, I did my undergrad at the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi where I majored in Electrical Engineering.

Researchinterests: I broadly work in the area of embedded sensor networks or "smart dust". My research interests are in operating system design, programming techniques and middleware services for sensor networks. I am currently working on software fault tolerance for resource constrained sensor nodes.
