My recent industry experience with virtualization motivated me to Jump in Cloud Computing paradigm. For more than a year, I was working with Hitachi Data Systems  who were developing their private Cloud Computing Plateform. Before that I also worked in Microsoft Head Office  with Infrastructure Team of Microsoft Forefront Enpoint Protection product team for  2+ years and worked on virtualization technology for controling and managing their Virtualization infrastructure for the product builds and Automation Testing. Recently I have also worked on a software as a Server product a "Vehicle Tracking and Fleet Management" software with Xpert Technologies.

After the aforementioned experience with virtualization and cloud computing I decided to start research in the Cloud Computing Paradigm. Apart from my teaching responsibilities I have joined the CGC group in COMSATS and is currently working on a survey paper to summarize the work done so far on the role of Virtualization in Cloud Comuting.
