Online Banking

Designed and developed an online banking system using Java. The system

deals with customer access to online bank accounts and transactions such as

deposit, withdrawal, viewing balance, over draft charges, etc. Used JDBC to

connect to Oracle databases for storage and retrieval of customer

information.

E-Cards

Designed and developed an E-card system using Java mail API and Servlets in

J2EE. The system is used to send greeting cards to multiple recipients by e-

mail along with personalized messages and receive acknowledgement from

recipients once the greeting has been viewed.

Data Mining Engine to find details of proteins

Designed and developed a data mining engine using JSP. The engine searches

various biological databases to find the details of a protein such as its

identifier, description, Cluster no, Gene name, given the name of the

protein and the name of the database to be searched. Used JDBC to connect

to Oracle databases for retrieving protein details.

Study of Cycles in Gaussian Modular Arithmetic via Computer Experiments

Designed and developed a system to study cycles in Gaussian integers. The

system takes different prime numbers as input and performs modular

arithmetic operations on Gaussian integers to find its orders and powers

using discrete logarithm problem. The system was implemented in C.

Multimedia Load Balancing for 3 Processors via Computer Experiments

Designed and developed a system to improve the performance of processors by

balancing the load equally between three processors. The system takes the

number of jobs, backlogs for each processor, and the time taken for each

job as input and calculates the processing time for each processor. The

system was implemented in Java.

Bachelor's Degree Project

Online Examination

Designed and developed an online examination system using Java, JSP, and

J2EE. The system allows students to write exams online and the results are

generated automatically. This software is now being used by the university

to conduct exams online.
