I am a sixth year PhD student in the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University, working in Formal Methods with Prof. Edmund M. Clarke.

My current research interests are in algorithms and techniques for scaling Model Checking to complex systems. Specifically, I am interested in model checking, automatic abstraction, compositional reasoning, runtime verification and hardware acceleration methods for both non-probabilistic and probabilistic systems.

Earlier, I did some research on mixed-signal circuit verification. I also worked in Computational Geometry.

Before coming to Carnegie Mellon, I was an undergraduate in the Computer Science and Engineering Department at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India.
