STARTUPS AND CORPORATE ACCOMPLISHMENTS

á      Played a leadership role in founding of Growth Networks: product definition, business model, developing a business plan, customer validation, first round of funding, and bringing founding team together.

á      Contributed to almost all aspects of Growth Networks success: recruiting, product definition, architecture and its performance validation, pre-product sales and customer engagements, and finally acquisition by Cisco. Growth Networks is notable for many reasons including the following:

o      Its switching and packet classification technologies are the foundation of CiscoÕs next generation flagship router.

o      It represents one of the best cases of NSF and DARPA funded research having a real commercial impact.

o      It was acquired by Cisco Systems for over $350M in January 2000.

á      Served on the board of a network security company called NetSift that was acquired by Cisco Systems (2004-2005).

á      Co-founded a multimedia wireless company called Sceos Technologies that was seed funded and incubated at Sequoia Capital. I served as its CTO and member of the board. Sceos has evolved to be Ruckus Wireless (2002-2003).

á      Played a key role in founding of a network security company called Nevis Networks. I brought the founding team together and created the business plan that led to seed funding of the company (2002).

á      Served as a member of the Technical Advisory Board at Jibe Networks from its founding to acquisition by Orbital Data (2002-2006).

UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION ACCOMPLISHMENTS

The experience as the Director of Applied Research Laboratory at Washington University in St. Louis (http://www.arl.wustl.edu/arl/) was very rewarding and played an important role in my professional growth.

The purpose of the Applied Research Laboratory (ARL) is to develop high performance hardware and software technologies by building practical prototype systems and deploying them in testbed settings. ARL takes pride in prototyping systems that can be licensed to industry for product development. Since itÕs founding in 1988, ARL has been occupied with applied research on high-speed networking and high performance multimedia and imaging technologies. It has successfully transferred several technologies from its laboratory to industry.

While I was Director, ARL had a staff of more than fifteen full time VLSI, hardware, and software engineers, close to 15 doctoral students, and external research funding of approximately $2 million per year, which came from both federal agencies and an industrial consortium.

As the Director of the Applied Research Laboratory, I was responsible for the following:

á      Provide leadership and organize multi-investigator research projects and proposals

á      Manage laboratory's budget, personnel, and facilities.

á      Coordinate and prepare timely progress reports for various projects.

á      Organize progress review meetings of the Industrial Partnership Program (IPP).

á      Manage laboratory's patent portfolio and the royalty distribution.

á      Explore technology transfer opportunities.

RESEARCH ACCOMPLISHMENTS

My groupÕs important research accomplishments at Washington University in St. Louis include the following:

á      1998. Proposed a scalable high performance Active Networking Platform based on the APIC, Washington University Gigabit ATM Switch, and our enhanced NetBSD OS.

á      1997-98. Proposed and designed a network monitoring, visualization, and control system for effective management of high speed networks that are aimed at providing QoS guarantees to its users.

á      1992--98. Proposed, designed, and prototyped a Gbps ATM desk area network (DAN) system for high performance multimedia workstations and servers. The DAN, which can be thought of as a replacement for an I/O bus, provides high bandwidth data paths between various multimedia devices, the network, and the processor-memory bus within a workstation or server. The system includes (1) an ATM Port Interconnect Controller (APIC) chip which can be a 1.2 Gbps network interface for CPU-memory system and multimedia devices, and (2) OS and protocol processing support for QoS guarantees within the host. NSF funded a program at Washington University that allowed distribution of APIC based network interfaces and software (along with Jon Turner's gigabit ATM switch) to 40 to 60 research groups across the country.

á      1992--98. Proposed, designed, and prototyped a high performance scalable multimedia storage server and a multimedia-on-demand service with QoS guarantees on a local ATM network. The important aspects of the storage server architecture include (1) an APIC based 1.2 Gbps ATM interconnect within the server which provides a direct path from disks to the network; (2) distributed data layout algorithms which allow highly concurrent access to the same data, load balancing across various disks of the server, and effective playout control operations; and (3) scheduling strategies for ensuring quality of service guarantees. The multimedia-on-demand service is being deployed on the local ATM testbed and will be very useful for a variety of applications.

á      1994--98. Proposed, designed, and prototyped an integrated services Internet architecture that brings IP and ATM approaches together and provides quality of service guarantees to Internet applications.

á      1990--92. Proposed, designed, and prototyped application-oriented lightweight transport protocol solutions for a class of pipelined networked computing applications.

á      1988--92. Proposed, designed and simulated Axon host communication subsystem encompassing host-network interface, protocols, OS , and distributed shared virtual memory. We believe Axon to be the first zero-copy host-network interface and the first use of distributed shared virtual memory.

á      1988--92. Proposed and prototyped a novel Internet service abstraction called a congram which can provide both datagram service and variable grade of service with performance guarantees on the Internet. Recently, a lot of Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) activities in the area of integrated services are looking at similar problems and solutions.

á      1988--92. Proposed, designed, and simulated Internet router architectures that use ATM switches as a core for scalable high speed switching. Several companies including Ipsilon, IBM, and others are pursuing similar architectures.

á      1983--87. Proposed and designed a novel high speed switch-based LAN architecture with a flooding protocol for network access. Emerging LANs based on Ethernet and ATM switches suggest similar trends and are becoming a huge commercial success.
