BIO

Jyoti holds a Ph.D. in Computer Science with a specialization in Cloud Computing and a Master’s in Computer Science and Technology. Her doctoral research centered on advancing resource provisioning within cloud environments, where she developed autoscaling solutions tailored to bag-of-tasks applications and scientific workflows by designing adaptive systems that dynamically respond to workload demands and data dependencies, aiming to optimize performance and manage operational costs more effectively.

 

Beyond her work on resource provisioning in cloud computing, her research interests include mobile edge computing, blockchain, and the Internet of Things, where she examines ways to bring computational power closer to users and develop interconnected systems that leverage blockchain for secure, decentralized solutions. She has a keen interest in solving problems through graph modeling, which enables her to uncover complex relationships and hidden patterns within systems.
