I have recently joined the Department of Computer Science, State University of New York at Stony Brook, as an Assistant Professor. At MIT, I am affiliated with the SuperTech Research Group led by Professor Charles Leiserson. Click here for my UT Austin homepage (with a list of my publications and other relevant information). Research Interests       ¤ Design and analysis of algorithms and data structures for combinatorial problems, especially,       - Algorithms for massive datasets: external-memory, cache-oblivious, streaming, parallel, etc.       - Algorithms for multicore computing.       - Graph algorithms: static and dynamic, exact and approximate, etc.       ¤ Computational Biology and Bioinformatics       - structure-based drug design, protein-protein docking, protein flexibility, energetics, sequence alignment, etc.       ¤ Experimental algorithmics.
