Prof. Rajiv Raman is a faculty at IIIT-Delhi since 2012. His primary area of research is algorithms. He is interested in the design and analysis of algorithms for problems in various domains such as scheduling, resource allocation, graph colouring and geometry. He also has an interest in the development of efficient practical heuristics for real-life problems. He obtained his PhD degree in Computer Science from the University of Iowa in 2007. Since then, he has worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the Max-Planck institute for informatics in Germany, and at the Centre for Discrete Mathematics and Applications at the University of Warwick. He has also worked briefly at TCS Innovation Labs before joining IIIT in 2012.
