* "Quality, Competition and Optimal Financing of a Venture Enterprise in Information Entropy Backdrop: The Pecuniary Dynamics of Advantage", Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA (Mar'08).
We delve into an integrative analysis of how absolution and relativity of product quality relate to the competition that an entrepreneur grapples with. How can an entrepreneur, faced with the challenge of fostering capital structures and other pecuniary instruments in various forms (for e.g. dividends and equity), mediate on the optimality of capital? How is the entrepreneur affected by the seemingly varying impressions of optimal quality and competition amidst a fuzzy information collation shared by him and the venture capitalist? This paper provides an insight into the contours of advantage that an entrepreneur can exploit.

* "Conflation of Service-Orientation and Persuasiveness: A Modeling Study based on Influence and Trust in a Macrosuasion context", The Second International Conference on Persuasive Technology, Persuasive Technology Laboratory, Stanford University, CA USA (Oct'06).
Little research has gone into understanding how Persuasiveness and Service Orientation of technology coexist and interact. This paper is a work that explores how persuasion operates in a service-oriented environment. A model has been proposed based on the four key forces – influence, persuasiveness, trust and trustworthiness and a treatment has been extended to weave these forces in a macrosuasion environment. We provide an informal mathematical model to understand the dependencies that function between a service provider and the end user and how persuasion based on influence depends on inherent factors in this environment.

* "ProTemp- Z : An XML Based Authorization System with Provisional Authorization and Temporal Certification Support ", MIT-IASTED International Conference on Communication, Network and Information Security, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA (Oct'06).
This paper proposes a model ProTemp-Z that synthesizes the notions of provisional authorization and temporal certifications, resulting in a system that is powerful enough to enforce security based on a well-defined set of provisions and also based on the temporal coordinates of data. The temporal orientation of this model also accounts for the safeguard of security of dynamically changing data, which is of great value. Present is an implementation of the authorization logic.

* "Metascheduling : An Elixir for Performance-Tuning of Compound Sessions based on the CM-Resource Model", 7th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Communication Technology, the Republic of South Korea (February 21-23,2005).
This paper explores the concept of Metascheduling model and extends a mathematical treatment to the concepts of 'workload' and 'delay' , proposes a pseudocode for reservation of multi-resources and describes the necessaries of Compound Sessions and its parameters.

* “Quintessence of Quality in Software Engineering : An Insight into Concerns, Perspectives and Solutions”, IEEE International Conference on Information Technology : Prospects and Challenges; Kathmandu, Nepal (May 23-26, 2003).
This paper is a venture into the concerns, perspectives and solutions to the Software Quality question - How to make the abstractions in software code background work perceptually as you want them to ?

* “Information Technology on Social and Economic Canvas” ,International Management and Technology Conference, Technology Research Institute of Florida, Inc. Orlando, Florida, USA (December 8-10,2004.)
A paper that discusses a selection of some of the important findings of social and economic science studies that have provided useful insights for understanding the social and economic impacts of Information Technology (IT)

* "Biometrics: The next big thing", 91st Session of the Indian Science Congress, Chandigarh, INDIA (January 3-8,2004).
This paper models biometrics as a reflection of a human being. A Biometrics Prototype model has been suggested that is to be frozen before a biometric system is effected.

* “Nanotechnology : A Microcosm of Transhumanic Technology “ presented and published at the 91st Session of the Indian Science Congress held at Chandigarh (January 3-8,2004).
In this paper, Nanotechnology — the ability of inexpensively arranging atoms in most of the patterns permitted by physical law—is captured at its latest and the various concepts underpinning this technology are researched and reinforced. A special endeavor to envision Nanotechnology as a synthesis of myriad powers of human dexterity and the muscle and potential of machines has been made.
