Hi! I'm Rajendra

Interests

Coding

I started my journey towards Computer Science when I was in 11^th standard. I love solving puzzles and problems involving logic, so for me, Coding is Fun. I love to converse with Computers. My interest in Computer Science led me here, at IITM. Some of my key projects are:

Sports

I have always been a sports person and love to play outdoor games. I have played numerous sports including Volleyball, Kho-Kho, Cricket, Football, Handball and many more. Volleyball and Kho-Kho are my main events and I have been upto state level in both of them. I started lifting weights after coming to IITM and also won a bronze in powerlifting in 72 Kg weight category. I feel education is incomplete without sports.

Music

Music is to the soul what food is to the body. In my leisure,I love to listen to the music. I have a diverse taste in music, including ghazals, old classical and modern. I am not good in singing at all, I just love to listen.

Academics

Education

Research

My research interests are parallel programming and program analysis. Currently I am working on Data Race Detection for parallel Java programs. Data races are hard-to-detect bugs because of non-deterministic behavior of parallel programs. These can corrupt the thread-shared data and hence considered as threat to program security.

Several static and dynamic race detection techniques are available to detect these bugs. But both these techniques have their pros and cons. Static detectors are incredibly fast but imprecise whereas, dynamic detectors are highly precise but slow. The aim of my research work is to make a faster race detector without losing precision.

Publications

Currently, I have no publications. The research work is under implementation.

Academic Achievements

• Secured AIR of 367 in Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering 2017.
• Second position in Code Marathon at Horizon 2015
• Second position in Tech Coding at Horizon 2014
• Third position in Project Exhibition at Horizon 2014

About Me

I am a 3rd year MS research scholar at Indian Institute of Technology Madras , working under the guidance of prof. V. Krishna Nandivada. I am associated with Programming Languages, Architechture and Compilers Education (PACE) Lab in Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) department of IIT Madras. My research interests are parallel programming and program analysis. My current research work is focused on Data Race Detection for parallel Java programs.

Apart from academics, I like sports. I am really a sports person at heart and have played Volleyball and Kho-Kho for quite a long time. I love to converse with computers and want to make it my carreer.
