Brief Bio:
I received the B.Tech degree in Computer Science from Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi in 1986 and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science from State University of New York at Stony Brook in 1989 and 1991 respectively. I am currently a Program Director at National Science Foundation in the Computer and Network Systems Division of the CISE Directorate. I am working with the Computer Systems Research (CSR) program and the Cyber-Physical Systems program. I also work with colleagues in the Engineering and Social and Behavioral Sciences Directorate on the Partnership for Innovations (PFI) program, Critical Resilient Interdependent Systems and Processes (CRIPSP) and the Research Coordination Networks (RCN) program. I was the Head of the Computing and Information Sciences Department at Kansas State University from July, 2009 to July, 2014. At Kansas-State, I lead the Pervasive Sensor Network Laboratory (PerSNL) which is focused on developing tools and methodologies for designing applications and middleware for real-time embedded systems and sensor networks. My research has been funded by NSF, DARPA, AFOSR, and several industrial partners. I was the Director of a multidisciplinary Center for Sensors and Sensor Systems which was funded under the K-State Targeted Excellence Program I was the recipient of the Frankenhoff Outstanding Research Award in 2007, NSF CAREER Award in 1995 and NSF Research Initiation Award in 1992. |
