Salil
obtained a B.E. in Electrical Engineering from VJTI, Bombay, India
in
1998. Subsequently he joined the Department of Electrical
and Computer
Engineering at Drexel University in
Philadelphia, USA as a
post-graduate student. Salil received his M.S. and Ph.D., both in
Electrical Engineering in 2001 and 2003 respectively. Salil's
Ph.D. dissertation was in the area of fair, efficient, and low-latency
scheduling in high-speed networks with a particular focus on achieving
low implementation complexity for practical use in switches and routers.
Since April 2004,
Salil is with the School of Computer Science and
Engineering at the
University
of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia. Salil is a member
of the Network Research
Laboratory (NRL), a leading research group,
consisting of 4 academic staff, 4 research fellows and over 15 Ph.D
students.
Salil's current
research interests are in the areas of sensor networks, participatory
sensing, mobile networking, vehicular communication, wireless mesh
networks and network
security.
