| Your personal background. |
I'm an undergraduate in Computer Science from India. I'm interested in algorithmic complexity, formal languages and logic. However, physics remains my first love and I'm going to switch to physics in my Masters.
I'm 23 and my interests include reading fiction and non-fiction (anything that has nothing to do with religion), writing poetry and short-stories, listening to music (Jazz, Rock, Classical), swimming and biking. I also happen to be a movie-buff, though nothing comes before the Discovery Channel, National Geographic Channel and the History Channel on TV!
Each day I bike my way from my home to my college and back. That's a distance of about 40 kms each day on Indian roads(which resemble anything but roads, by the way).

| Your opinions about Einstein@Home |
When I first read about the Einstein@Home project, I had goosebumps on my skin! This was probably the easiest way towards answering the question about gravitational waves! Einstein would have been impressed.
The Einstein@Home project runs on my home desktop (an AMD 1.54GHz with WindowsXP Home). Though my city (as most other cities in India) suffers from an acute problem of load-shedding (6 to 12 hours a day), I keep my computer on for as long as is possible.
I would like to know the actual calculations which my computer is performing on this project. I hope the calculations are "open-source", so to say :-) |
