I am a second year Ph.D. student in the Department of Computer Science at Boston University working with Dr. Richard West. I received my Master’s in Computer Engineering in 2023 from Virginia Tech where I was advised by Dr. Haibo Zeng. I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering at PSG College of Technology, India in 2021.

My research focuses on different aspects of Real-Time Operating System design for multicore systems. My specific interests include, but are not limited to:

• Scheduling
• Synchronization
• Resource Management
• Virtualization

Feel free to reach out to me in case you are interested in my research, real-time systems, or pursuing graduate school. Email is the best way to reach me.

What’s in a name?

My name is pronounced as follows:

Where I come from, we follow patronymic naming. So, my given name is actually R. Shriram, where R stands for Raja which is my father’s first name. To match the convention that is common in other parts of India and the world, I moved the initial to the other side of my first name. So, when I say, "Call me Shriram", it's because Raja is literally my father.
