Unlike many, Asnani is attracted to problems and is as passionate about understanding their theoretical underpinnings as he is about developing, implementing and experimenting with practical schemes that make a difference.

"What intrigued me was the idea that communication and networking could be used to connect and inspire people. By helping people share ideas and questions and answers, I was applying theory to real life problems with tangible impacts and outcomes," Asnani noted.

Asnani's initial research focused on cooperation in communication, which can boost the performance of a network.

"He developed insights and results of independent theoretical significance and uses them for guiding the design of new schemes in the motivating problem domains," says Weissman observed.

Asnani's assignments at Ericsson include designing next generation communication and computer networks. He also leads Ericsson's collaborations with startup partners and vendors to port new features and applications in the cloud platform.

Through symposia, conferences, forums and publications, the Society also promotes awareness of major innovations in communication theory, technology and applications with particular attention to understanding how they change and benefit society.
