I am originally from Chennai aka Madras, a city in south India. I got my B.E in Computer Science and Engineering in the year 2002. After a one year stint in a Software company in Chennai (Cybernet Software Systems), I joined Stony Brook University, New York, where I obtained my M.S and Ph.D in computer science. Recently, I have permanently moved back to India after a seven year stay in the US.

Apart from Computer Science which is my primary subject of interest, I am also interested in law and physics. Had I not been into Computer Science, I'd have become a lawyer. My hobbies include target archery, playing badminton, squash, watching movies, and listening to music.

My brothers Muthian Sivathanu and Sankaran Sivathanu are also computer scientists.

I am a fan of The Matrix  :-)
