Research
 
 

My interests include:

  • Design and analysis of algorithms
  • Thoeretical computer science
  • Computational Biology

In summer 2008, I worked with Prof Neal Young on a summer project. We implemented the algorithm proposed by Prof Neal and Christos Koufogiannakis. Our implementation is available on Google Code: fastpc.

I worked on a project, with Prof Stefano Lonardi and Prof Giafranco Ciardo, where we explored the idea of using MDDs for storing genomic data.

Currently, I am focusing on designing and analyzing approximation algorithms for optimization problems. In particular, I work on the following problems:

  • Packing and covering integer programs
  • Minimum energy broadcast for sensor networks (ref)
