About Me:

I am currently working on applying deep reinforcement learning for provisioning multi-component cloud services. My recent work "COUNSEL" got accepted at IEEE/ACM CCGrid 2023 (Core A conference). Also, we have got open research object (ORO) and reproducible research badges. I am interested in serverless and Edge-Cloud continuum. My research interests span the areas of cloud and edge computing, machine learning, Big data, 5G Communication, and time-sensitive networks. A common thread in my research is in understanding the theory and applying it to solve system problems. I have frequently employed mathematical methods from the areas of Queueing theory, Algorithmic game theory, and Optimization to solve problems in the field of cloud computing.
