ॐ Anwitaman Datta

I joined NTU Singapore in 2006 after receiving my Phd from EPFL Switzerland. I am interested in large-scale networked distributed information systems and social collaboration networks, self-organization and algorithmic issues of these systems and networks and their scalability, resilience and performance. I lead the Self-* and Algorithmic aspects of Networked Distributed Systems (SANDS) research group.

Research Interests:
- Systems: Distributed and Peer-to-Peer Information Systems
- Algorithms: Distributed, Randomized, Epidemic
- Self-Organization & complex networks
- Social and collaboration networks
