  Dissertation: On Service Discovery and Composition in Ad-hoc Environments
  My research focuses on developing distributed architectures for service discovery and service composition in Ad-hoc environments. I developed a distributed peer-to-peer caching based service discovery architecture that is bandwidth efficient and employs bounded advertising and intelligent selective forwarding to achieve network-wide reachability. I developed broker-based distributed reactive protocols for service composition in infrastructure-less ad-hoc environments that are adaptable to dynamic service topology, mobility and device heterogeneity (in terms of memory, computational capabilities)
