For a quick intro, I'm a Bachelor in Computer Engineering graduate from the Pune Institute of Computer Technology (PICT), Pune, India.

I am currently working with Codito Technologies Pvt. Ltd. on porting uClinux to a new architecture, some RTLinux work and writing some IEEE1394 camera drivers.

I spend my free time working on a project called AudioLink. It's a software that makes managing (and building catalogues of) your music collection (MP3 or Ogg Vorbis) easier. It's something that I always wanted... there were some softwares that did such stuff, but I wanted to write something of my own and learn Perl... what better way than this? It's free software (GPL'ed), give it a try!

Of late, I'm spending more of my free time on Debian and writing articles for Kerneltrap. Visit my Debian page for the list of packages that I maintain for Debian and the docs section for the links to articles on KernelTrap.

I occasionally deliver some lectures at PICT on Linux. Around Jan-Mar. 2003, I delivered lectures on Operating Systems, Computer Networks, Linux, etc. along with some colleagues. The schedule and detailed information for the lectures is here.

I also guided a BE project group. They implemented a basic version of DSM capabilities for openMosix. Currently, they have a version that can migrate shared memory processes. More details about MigShm are here. These girls were recently interviewed by the Linux Journal people.

Engineering assignments for FE, SE, TE, BE computer students can be found in the code section.

    since June 10, 2002.

    This site is completely designed using emacs 21 and CVS as the versioning system. Konqueror, Mozilla and links were used to test the site.

    This site does not give you images unless you ask for them (except for the counters); it might look less pretty, but loads faster. Please excuse the pop-up ads for now; they'll go in some time. BTW, you could configure your browser to disable popups if you use a sane browser. If not, use Killad, a popup stopper from http://www.iomagic.org/fsc/
