 | In a previous post, I gave an overview of Protothreads and talked about my days in Sweden. Protothreads got featured on the cover of this month's Embedded Systems Magazine (May 2008 Vol. 21 No. 5). The cover story is by Michael Dorin and is titled "Building "instant-up" real-time operating systems". Check it out! |
I am a PhD student at Princeton University. I study Computer Science and am interested in Networks and Systems.
| Our group leader Koen Langendoen, recently got featured on the cover of a dutch ICT magazine. So apparently the sensornets research works of our group (like the infamous potato deployment) are not going unnoticed. Also, congrats Koen on becoming a Full Professor! |

| Next month, I will be a guest lecturer at the Abdus Salam Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) in Trieste, Italy. Abdus Salam is the first Muslim and the first (and only) Pakistani Nobel Laureate. He unified two (electromagnetism and weak interaction) of the four fundamental forces of nature, which is still the latest step towards the unified description of all four physical forces. ICTP was founded by Salam in 1964. Salam wanted to bridge the scientific and economic gap between the rich and poor populations of the world - something that we are trying to do through Dritte. ICTP, following on its founder's vision, is organizing a School on Wireless Networking for Development, where i will be giving lectures on Feb 24th and 25th. |
I am excited about this trip, as I think that Abdus Salam's vision will inspire me to focus on fundamental problems in scientific research and to try and bring the benefits of science to the poor.
SIGCOMM 2007 workshop and main conference sessions were broadcasted live from Japan and are also archived here. Below is my TinyPC talk, you can also have a look at the paper and the presentation slides.
| We are having a lot of fun in Kyoto at SIGCOMM. Thats me in the picture talking to David Clark. This post needs serious updating. |
