Hewlett-Packard Research Labs, CA

The research labs are located next to the HP corporate headquarters in Palo Alto, CA. I worked with the Compression and Multimedia Technologies group as a summer intern. Honestly, I couldn't have asked for a better bargain: work was excellent and my research group was great fun. My work was focussed on multimedia content delivery and streaming media platforms. Thats about all I can tell you :)

INSEAD, France

The European School of Business Administration is known to be one of the worlds biggest business schools with campuses in France and Singapore. Recently, INSEAD forged an alliance with Wharton Business School.

I started at INSEAD as a software engineer with the Technology Management Group and Webcenter. Later on, I worked on the blueprint for InseadOnline, INSEAD's online learning initiative. I spent close to 8 months in France working with INSEAD and enjoyed every day of it.

Bhabha Atomic Research Center (BARC), India

I spend a summer at India's first atomic research facility in Bombay. I worked in a team to implement a link robot simulator for the Department of Robotics and Remote Handling. The tool was aimed to detect flaws in robot blueprints before a prototype was actually made. This would reduce the development cycle length and cost for building RRE's (Robots for Radioactive Environments).
