Updates

• Joined Faculty@CSE-IITK on June 7, 2017.
• I am currently looking for Ph.D, M.S./M.Tech, and B.Tech. students interested in computer architecture. Please see this note for details.
• I am not looking for summer/winter interns as it is not possible to finish projects related to Computer Architecture in one summer/winter break. My apologies for not being able to respond to emails enquiring about this.

Research Interests

I am broadly interested in the areas of computer architecture and systems. Specifically, I have worked on memory hierarchy optimizations in the form of hardware prefetching and cache compression for multi-core systems. Please visit current research interests for an overview.
