Currently I am working on
- Chip Multiprocessor, Memory Hierarchies, and Cache Coherence Protocols.
Working on protocol enhancements by applying different optimization techniques
such as prediction, migration, and selective replication of data at the L1 cache
level. Using GEMS and SIMICS for performance evaluation.
- Transactional Memory (Software TM and Hardware-Acceleration
for STM).
Trying to increase scalability, reduce
programming complexity, and overcome the various semantic problems
associated with locks by using TM. Our hardware acceleration
utilizes the underlying cache coherence protocol to achieve
programmable data isolation while allowing flexible conflict
detection (eager or lazy).
In my MSc thesis I have worked on "A General-purpose simulator for
Network on Chip (NoC)". NoC is an interconnection network of
heterogeneous components such as processors, memories, FPGA, etc. This is
a variant of SoC but based on network like communication instead of shared
bus approach of SoC. The simulator supports various topologies of the so
far developed architectures such as mesh, torus and butterfly-fat-tree. It
models the layout of NoC switch supporting wormhole switching as well as
investigates the relationship between various parameters such as
mesh-size, buffer-size, flit-size, routing decisions, throughput etc.
In my BSc thesis I have worked on "Optimal algorithm for star
chromatic number of planar and non-planar graphs". I have
developed three new classes of planar and non-planar graphs. I have
given the optimal algorithm for coloring those classes of graphs so
that star-chromatic number is the minimum and I have showed the
correctness of the algorithms.
I did some worke on the problems of Mobile IP specially on handoff
latency.
