My research interests include the design and analysis of algorithms, and their applications, and geometry related computer techniques. The algorithm research has been on theoretical algorithmic problems like the p-center problem in computational geometry, graph searching problems on special graphs, optimization problems on distance-hereditary graphs, application problems like the optimal communication tree problem from VLSI design, and network transmission problems of multimedia systems. The research of geometry related computer techniques has been on physics- based modeling, wavelet theory on image processing and computer graphics and facial animation.

        Currently, my research interests focus on the design and analysis of algorithms for optimization problems on special graphs and application problems in bioinformatics.
