New Faculty Members
Annamalai
 Annamalai
Annamalai Jr. has joined the faculty as an assistant professor
at the Alexandria Research Institute. Annamalai's research interests
are in communications, specifically in high-speed data transmission
over wireless links, cellular radio communications, and mathematical
tools for communication systems design.
He earned his B.S. degree in engineering from the University
of Science of Malaysia in 1993, and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees
in electrical and computer engineering from the University of
Victoria in 1997 and 1999, respectively.
He recently was awarded the Leon K. Kirchmayer Prize Paper Award,
which is presented by the IEEE for the most outstanding paper
in any of its publications by an author under 30 years of age.
He has also won two prestigious Canadian awards for his doctoral
dissertation.
Evoy
 Stephane Evoy
joined the faculty as an assistant professor. He received his
Ph.D. in applied Physics from Cornell in 1998. He earned his
master's and bachelor's degrees in engineering physics from the
École Polytechnique de Montréal in 1994 and 1992
respectively.
He comes to Tech from Cornell, where he served as a post-doc
in physics. While at Cornell, Evoy contributed to record-breaking
efforts in UHF range nanomechanical devices and led a substantial
effort for the understanding of internal friction in these systems.
His current research interests are in materials science and enabling
technologies of nanomechanical system and their deployment in
integrated RF systems and attonewton force detection devices.
His teaching interests include nanotechnology, micromechanical
systems, and optoelectronic devices.
Mishra
 Amitabh Mishra
is an associate professor. His main thrust of research is in
the area of computer-communication networks architecture and
performance. At present he is looking at the architectures of
3G Wireless Networks (UMTS & CDMA2000), next generation switch
& router architectures, high speed NICs, scalability in communication
networks, and Quality of Service issues in packet data networks.
From 1987 to 2000, he was a Member of Technical Staff at Lucent
Technologies Bell Laboratories in Naperville, Illinois,
where his focus was on application architecture performance.
Mishra received his B. Eng. and M. Tech. degrees in EE from Jabalpur
University and Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur respectively.
He obtained a M. Eng. and a Ph. D. also in EE from McGill University,
and a MS in Computer Science from the University of Illinois
at Urbana-Champaign.
