I was responsible for scheduling the students for the experiments and ensuring that enough students were present at the time of the experiment. If minimum number of students were not present, the experiment could not be conducted. All the sessions were successful, none of the experiments had to be rescheduled.

Sep 1996 - Aug 1998 Thesis: "Analysis of two server polling system with overlapping skills and 1-limited service". Software used: FORTRAN and SLAM II. The main aim of the thesis was to find the optimal division of load in the three queues, i.e. the optimal degree of overlap of skills between the two servers with waiting time in queue as the performance measure. A method was recommended to approximate the mean waiting time in a queue that can be used to determine the optimal allocation of load to the three queues.
July 1995 - April 1996 Project "The Development of Indian Telecom Sector: The Gap Between Demand And Supply and It's Financial Implications". Software used: RATS (Regression and Time Series) and TORA (Operations research package). I projected the demand and supply of the telephone services in India using Econometrics methods and found the best alternative to use to meet the demand using the Linear Programming.
