Georgia Tech Anand Sivasubramaniam

Assistant Professor
Department of Computer Science and Engineering
The Pennsylvania State University

Anand Sivasubramaniam received his B.Tech in Computer Science from the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, in 1989, an M.S. and a PhD in Computer Science from the College of Computing in the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1991 and 1995 respectively. His research interests are in computer architecture, parallel processing, operating systems, simulation and evaluation of computer systems. His research has focussed on studying the synergy between parallel applications and architectures, by experimentation, simulation and modeling, and using the insights drawn from such studies towards building large-scale parallel systems. He is currently an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at The Pennsylvania State University
