My research and interests lie at the triple point of Computational Science, Distributed Systems and Theoretical aspects of computer science (abstractions & algorithms). My research is funded by wide source of funds: US-NSF, US-NIH, UK's EPSRC, internal competitive grants at LSU and most recently by Google (keep clicking on those adverts!). Although the opinions in these pages are mine, funding agencies are entitled to my opinions.
