I am a Computer Science PhD student at Georgie Tech under the supervision of Dr Calton Pu. In addition to that I am also affiliated with the Center for Experimental Research in Computer Systems (CERCS), the Georgia Tech Information Security Center (GTISC), and the Distributed Data Intensive Systems Lab (DISL).
Before joining the Tech I did my undergraduate degree at University of Moratuwa (Sri Lanka) , specializing Computer Science and Engineering. After that I worked in the industry about four years , mainly contributing to open source.
After completing my undergraduate , I joined Lanka Software Foundation (LSF). That is where I started to developed de-factor Java Web Service framework – Axis2. In LSF I was fortunate to work with world experts in Web Services as well as Apache Software foundation. Their guidelines help me to improve my programming , communication , and open source contribution skills. However I only worked for one year in LSF ....
Then I joined WSO2 , SOA company started by Dr Sanjiva Weerawarana, and I was so lucky to be one of the initial member of WSO2. I worked for WSO2 almost three years , until I came to USA for my PhD.
