Welcome to Suman Srinivasan's home page.

I am a fourth-year PhD candidate in the Computer Science department of Columbia University . I work under Dr. Henning Schulzrinne in the Internet Real Time Laboratory .

I am currently working on the NetServ project in colloboration with Bell Labs and Georgia Tech. Find our more about my research work. I previously worked on projects - 7DS and BonAHA - related to service discovery in highly mobile, opportunistic networks

I interned at Bell Labs, Holmdel, NJ, in summer 2009; I worked on the NetServ project. My research work was in the area of content-distribution networks (CDN) and the NetServ architecture.

Among my other work at Columbia:

  • Student researcher with the WORKIT project, including building the website.
  • Webmaster for the IRT lab website
  • A/V crew: Helped videotape the invited special lectures and faculty candidate talks at the Computer Science department. January 2005 - December 2006.

Previous Work

I completed my MS degree in Electrical Engineering at the University of Florida under Dr. Haniph Latchman. At the University of Florida, I worked on ATSS - Airborne Traffic Surveillance System where I worked on the logistics, as well as the software design of a client-server application framework that would receive signals from the UAV and transmit them over the network. The "client" at the headquarters would receive the signals and switch the video view based on which signal was strongest.

My undergraduate degree at the University of Madras in India. I have been in the US since 2001.

My Spare Time

In my free time, I practice Falun Gong , the Chinese meditation that is persecuted in mainland China by the Chinese Communist regime .

I was a club officer for the Falun Dafa Club, both at University of Florida and now Columbia University.

I also help with work for The Epoch Times , which helps raise awareness about the persecution and the human rights violations in mainland China ... and is a good paper too.
