Research Spotlight
In my thesis, I develop game-theoretic models to analyze the intensity of advertisements under browser settings that use ad-blocking mechanisms and only allow ads that follow a set of rules and do not cause discomfort to users. I also analyze whether government bodies should regulate the choice of ad-blocking mechanisms
My thesis topic is ‘Impact of battery energy storage system on electricity generation through renewable and non-renewable energy sources’. My work finds that balancing penalties act as a significant factor in preventing energy markets from the damaging effects of arbitrage and aggravated imbalances
The key focus area of my research is to analyze the impact of supplier innovativeness in a supply chain network on the firm’s innovation, and how different types of buyer-supplier relationships impact the innovation of the firm. I use different empirical and analytical modelling tools to generate insights into how global supply chains work, and how firms need to design their supply base portfolio
