Network-on-Chip (NoC)
Architecture and development of an extensible and modular, cycle accurate simulator (NIRGAM) in systemC that
allows researchers and designers to optimize the performance of Network-on-Chips.
NIRGAM (NoC Interconnect RoutinG and Application Modeling) provides a convenient and efficient mechanism to experiment with NoC design in terms of routing algorithms and applications on various topologies.

Tuning and Enhancement of IEEE 802.11 MAC
| Institute: | Malaviya National Institute of Technology, Jaipur, India |
| Advisor: | Prof. Manoj Singh Gaur |
| Duration: | 2006 |
| Platform: | yans, Network Simulator NS-2 |
The purpose of our research was to enhance performance of the IEEE 802.11 standards for Wireless LANs. We simulated 802.11a with burst transmission and acknowledgement (BTA) mechanism, taking inot account the physical(PHY) and Media Access Control(MAC) layer characteristics. Our simulation results provide experimental confirmation that BTA reduces overheads and consequently increases the throughput significantly.

Ant Colony Optimization
| Institute: | Malaviya National Institute of Technology, Jaipur, India |
| Advisor: | Prof. Manoj Singh Gaur |
| Duration: | 2005 |
| Platform: | Network Simulator NS-2 |

Ant Colony Optimization(ACO) is a probabilistic technique for solving computational and optimization problems. It is inspired by biological behavior of ant colonies, wherein they are able to find shortest path between two points through collective learning. I worked on simulation of AntNet, which is a network routing algorithm based on ACO, on network simulator, NS-2. In present research, I am extending this concept for NoC environment.
This research was sponsored by Genus Overseas Electronics Limited, Research and Development, India.
I am thankful to Dr. Gianni Di Caro, Researcher at Istituto Dalle Molle di Studi sull' Intelligenza Artificiale (IDSIA) Switzerland, for his feedback and guidance in this research.
