Who am I ?

I am the Director of Postgraduate Studies (Taught) in the Department of Computing at Imperial College London. I also act as the Deputy director of Industrial Liaison in the department, and was the 3rd and 4th year coordinator for many years. Initially, I joined Imperial as a Research Associate and was part of the Distributed Software Engineering Group and worked with Dr. Morris Sloman, Dr. Emil Lupu, and Dr. Naranker Dulay. I completed my PhD from the Computer Science Department at the University of Pittsburgh under the supervision of Dr. Taieb Znati in the area of pervasive and ubiquitous computing. You can find more information about my research interests in the Research section.

Going back still further in history, I spent five wonderful years at St. Stephen's College, Delhi, India, where I completed my Bachelors and Masters in Mathematics. After which, I spent one year at Wichita State University, Kansas. At Wichita, I was working under Dr. Nicholas Tran, (he has since shifted to Santa Clara University), in the field of Digital Watermarking. We also wrote up a small article, on how to extend GIMP for Digital Watermarking. We also implemented StirmarkTM in octave, (article available here).
