Work

Darwin's law of the survival of the fittest is theologically outrageous but it essentially pervades through all phases of life. This has forced me into making this page as an act of selling of my work and to exist  or rather co-exist in this world where work is the sole means of  valuablitly.

Welcome, employer! My resume in PDF format is available here.

Research Interests

1. Computational Methods: linear programming,  linear systems, randomized algorithms for optimization
2.  Machine learning - competitive learning, hardware implementation, static/dynamic learning
3. Computational Biology (My present literature survey is in this direction)

Recent Projects

I recently completed the construction of Bheema and Geetanjali. Bheema and Geetanjali are beowulf clusters targeted towards molecular dynamics simulations.

Bheema is an 10-node diskless beowulf cluster and Geetanjali is a 16 node disked beowulf cluster. Both these beasts can work several times faster than their predecessor Kamadhenu.  The exact speedup will be published after some benchmarking.

Here is a link to the documentation , I am working on for the construction of Bheema.

I also was working on the enhancement of  xmovie, a molecular dynamics visualization code, written by Dr. Preston B. Moore from University of Pennysylvania.


The latest code can be downloaded here.

The documentation for the developments in xmovie can be found here.
