Anubhav Bhatla

Hey! I am Anubhav, a fifth-year undergraduate at the Department of the Electrical Engineering, IIT Bombay. I am pursuing an Integrated Bachelors + Masters of Technology (Dual Degree) in Electrical Engineering with a specialisation in Electronic Systems, and a Minor in Computer Science and Engineering. I will be joining Massachusetts Institute of Technology to pursue a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.

I am deeply interested in the research area of Computer Architecture, which involves a good mix of fascinating topics in Electrical and Computer Science. I am currently working on research topics in Hardware Security, designing cache structures to ensure security against various side-channel attacks. I am also exploring branch predictor partitioning techniques for security and performance.

Outside of academics, I enjoy reading books (mostly fiction) and follow sports such as tennis, cricket, and badminton. I have also completed one year of training under the National Cadet Corps (NCC) at IIT Bombay.

Research Interests:

• Computer Systems and Architecture
• Hardware Security
• VLSI Circuit Design

In pursuit of these interests, I have been a part of the following research groups:

• MATCHA - Microarchitecture Attacks and Challenges Group - Prof. Mengjia Yan
• FLAME - Foundations of Languages and Machines Lab - Prof. Rachit Nigam
• CASPER - Computer Architecture for Security and Performance Group - Prof. Biswabandan Panda
• Memory Systems Lab - Prof. Moinuddin Qureshi
• PACL - High Performance Processor Architecture and Compilation Lab - Prof. Dean Tullsen
