My Picture         Current Status

I successfully defended my Ph.D. in December 2010 in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Manitoba under the supervision of Professor Ruppa Thulasiram. My current research focuses on the use of financial options for valuing compute resources with scopes around grid computing and cloud computing. I also extend my interests to social networks and adaptive classification systems using fuzzy logic.
