Hi! My name is Krishna Rupanagunta. A big part of this blog is devoted to the art and science of decision making: from how to transform problem solving in Enterprises to the massive opportunity that all things data presents in today’s business environment. I have always been in the problem solving space: from optimization and simulation all the way to the current AI/ML explosion. Here’s my professional journey: http://www.linkedin.com/in/krishna-rupanagunta
My other (real?) passion is to explore the endlessly fascinating complexities of the human experience at the confluence of Technology, Economics, and Psychology: what that means to how we as individuals and societies make choices, big and small.

I would love to hear from you – feel free to leave a review/comments on my posts, and if you do want to go beyond that, my email: rsrikrishna1@gmail.com.

Imagine this: you are going to the theater for a movie (in a post-covid world!) and you enter the parking lot. You have to make a choice as you drive towards the theater: do you pick the first open spot that you see (which means you have to walk longer and might miss the opening… Continue Reading →
Problem-Solving: the value of Serendipity
I am currently reading ‘Enemy of all Mankind’ by Steven Johnson. It is a fascinating story of a pirate .. and in the introduction, he writes the main motivation behind the book: “we tend to think of grand organizations like corporations or empires coming through deliberate planning: designing the conceptual architecture for each imposing structure,… Continue Reading →
