He has published more than 30 research papers in the field of Cryptography, Artificial Intelligence, Vedic Mathematics in National/Internal Journal/Conferences. His research work in the field of "Computer Implementation of Vedic Mathematics Sutra" has been considered equivalent to Ph.D. in engineering by Dr. A.K. Ramani of University Putra Malaysia (More than 100 research papers to his credit). and Dr. P.K.

<p>The book is designed for a one semester course in discrete mathematics for B.E. (Computer Science and Engineering), B.E. ( Information Technology), MCA and BCA students. It covers syllabus of the most Indian universities. Keeping this in mind the contents of the books are incorporated accordingly. The discipline of mathematics requires working of problems to enhance the understanding. Therefore, numbers problems are appended at the end of each chapter. Solutions are also provided to these problems. This has been divided into 15 chapters. In spite of my best care, it is possible that some errors, printing mistakes etc., might have crept in. I shall be thankful if the same is brought to my notice. Suggestions for further improvement of the book by readers will be highly appreciated.<br></p>
