Brief Bio

A mortal who is excited about microarchitecture and in general computer architecture research. A micro-architect does all the heavy lifting to squeeze out the best performance out of applications running on computing systems. Biswa's well-known microscopic contributions are the state-of-the-art high performing cache compressors and multi-level hardware data prefetchers. Biswa is one of the recipients of Qualcomm India Faculty Award 2022, Google India Research Award 2022, Prof. Krithi Ramamritam Award for creative research 2023.

Research: Interests, Mission, and Philosophy

Research interests: As a mortal I am passionate about computer architecture and its interactions with compiler/OS/network for performance and security. I know nothing about other "fancy/non-fancy" and "hot/cold" areas :)

Research mission: To ensure India's presence on the global map of computer architecture research with top quality publications at the flagship research forums .

Research Philosophy: Motivated by this quote on Cricket "Play Life like a Cricket match. Don’t try to hit hard in every situation, Just keep rotating, moving, and then look for that one Delivery and hit it as hard as you can."
Replace "life" with "research", "delivery" with "idea", and "hit as hard as you can" with "the impact".

If you want to do top-quality research aligned with out research mission and philosophy, and you know what it takes to do the same then welcome;looking forward to doing research with you.

Gratitude

Thanks to all the gurus who taught me the value of hardwork, failure, and inculcated the habit of striving for excellence. Thanks to students@IITK/IITB for some of the best "teaching/learning" moments. Thanks to Intel labs, Qualcomm, NXP, and Google Research for all the "financial" support.
