About Me
I joined the faculty at Purdue University in Jan 2021, where currently I am an Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering. My research interests span and integrate computer networks, systems, and hardware architecture. I am a member of Purdue ECE Systems and Networking Group and a co-lead at PurNET Lab.
Prior to joining Purdue, I was a Postdoctoral Associate at Yale University (Sep—Dec 2020). I received my Ph.D. (2020) and M.S. (2017) both in Computer Science from Cornell University. Prior to that, I completed my undergrad in Computer Science and Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur.
Teaching
| ECE 69500: Datacenter and Cloud Networks | [SP'22] |
| ECE 46300: Introduction to Computer Communication Networks | [FA'21] |
| ECE 50863: Computer Network Systems | [SP'21] |
Research
I am broadly interested in computer networks; in particular, problems at the intersection of networks, systems, and hardware architecture. My current research is centered around two broad themes—(i) designing high-speed and programmable hardware architectures for the network data plane, and (ii) leveraging network programmability (a.k.a. "in-network" computing) to improve the performance of networked and distributed systems and applications.
I work with a great group of students.
| ● | Nouman Abbasi (M.S., Aug 2021— ) |
| ● | Jason Lei (Ph.D., starting Aug 2022) |
| ● | Usman Jafri (Ph.D., Aug 2021— ) w/ Prof. Rao |
