Anju Mongandampulath Akathoott

I am a post-doctoral researcher in the Department of Computer Science at Texas State University, where I am part of the Efficient Computing Laboratory (ECL), led by Dr. Martin Burtscher.  My research interests are in high performance computing, graph algorithms, data compression algorithms and massively parallel computations. I received my Ph.D. (and M.Tech.) in Computer Science from IIT Madras. My Ph.D. dissertation work (supervised by Dr. Rupesh Nasre, IIT Madras) was on locking techniques for improving concurrency of hierarchical applications. Prior to that, I worked as a software developer at Amdocs, Pune, India.
