Hi! I am Barun Saha. I have a PhD degree in Computer Science & Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India. In my PhD thesis, titled "Content Dissemination in Opportunistic Mobile Networks (OMNs)," I investigated different modes of distributing content to the users in OMNs. You can read more about my research.

I received my MS (by Research) degree also from the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur. Prior to that, I worked at Wipro Technologies at Bangalore and Chennai, India.
I have primarily worked in the domain of Opportunistic Mobile Networks. I'm also interested in the allied areas of wireless networks. When not busy with these tasks, sometimes I try my hand with poetry. Nowadays I mostly write tanka, a traditional form of Japanese poetry with five lines and 5-7-5-7-7 syllable constraint. What do you think about my tanka on OMNs?
