Research Interests

I work in LCA under the supervision of Prof. Lizy John.

My interests include microprocessor architecture, power and performance modeling, workload characterization and low power architectures. My thesis is on traffic aware dynamic adaptations in multicore network processors. The goal of these adaptations is to maximize performance while keeping the power overhead to a minimum.
