Devdatt P. Dubhashi is Professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Chalmers University, Sweden. He earned a Ph.D. in computer science from Cornell University and held positions at the Max-Planck-Institute for Computer Science in Saarbruecken, BRICS, the University of Aarhus and IIT Delhi. Dubhashi has published widely at international conferences and in journals, including many special issues dedicated to best contributions. His research interests span the range from combinatorics to probabilistic analysis of algorithms, and more recently, to computational systems biology and distributed information systems such as the Web.
