Abhigyan Sharma

Principal Inventive Scientist, AT&T Labs Research

I work at AT&T Labs Research. My work often applies distributed systems techniques to build networking infrastrucure. Recently, I have found the intersection of networking with hardware to be a fruitful area of exploration. I completed my PhD in Computer Science at UMass Amherst under the fantastic supervision of Arun Venkataramani and Ramesh Sitaraman. My dissertation received the UMASS CS Outstanding PhD Dissertation Award 2016. I did my undergraduate in Computer Science and Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
