Bio
I am a Ph.D. student at the ECE department at NC State University. My advisor is Dr. Eric Rotenberg.
Before coming to NCSU, I studied at Temple Univeristy, Philadelphia, where I earned my Master's degree in Electrical Engineering. My advisor was Dr. Musoke Sendaula. For my Master's thesis, I had the opportunity to work with Dr. Amir Roth, at the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia. Prior to that, I completed my Bachelor of Engineering degree in Electronics Engineering from the University of Mumbai, India.
Research
Broadly, computer architecture. Specifically, novel processor microarchitecture, instruction-level parallelism, microarchitecture simulation tools. Presently, as a part of the FabScalar project, I am developing a detailed simulation framework using C++, as a tool to simulate a customizable Verilog model of a superscalar processor.
