Karthik Krishnan received his M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from the University of Arizona, Tucson, USA in 2004 and a B.S. in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from BITS, Pilani, India in 2002. His thesis at the University of Arizona dealt with compression and transmission techniques for remote volume visualization. During his last semester as an undergraduate he was an intern at Motorola, Bangalore working on image compression schemes. As a grad student, he spent the summers at Siemens Corporate Research, Princeton optimizing wavelet based compression schemes for remote visualization.
