About the Author

Kal Sharma

Dr. Kal Renganathan Sharma PE (Prairie View, Texas) received his BTech in chemical engineering from Indian Institute of Technology, Chennai, India and MS and PhD in chemical engineering from West Virginia University, Morgantown. He spent two terms at the department of computer science at Dartmouth College and some time under Ramana Reddy, Director of Concurrent Engineering Research Center, West Virginia University, Morgantown. His postdoctoral research work was with R. Shankar Subramanian, formerly chair and professor, chemical engineering at Clarkson University. He performed some probabilistic modeling while he was at Monsanto Plastics. Dr. Sharma has authored 5 books, 10 journal articles, 440 conference papers, 53 preprints, 37 invited lectures/seminars, and 21 others. He developed the curriculum and syllabus for the M.Tech. in Bioinformatics program when he served as Professor and Head of Department at Vellore Engineering College, India. Dr. Sharma has held a number of other positions including: Principal, Sakthi Engineering College, Chennai, India; Professor, SASTRA University, Thanjavur, India; President, Independent Institute of Technology, Hanover, NH; Adjunct Assistant Professor, Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering, West Virginia University, Morgantown; Visiting Research Assistant Professor, Applied and Engineering Statistics, George Mason University, Fairfax.
