Memory Access Scheduling Schemes in USIMM Simulator Apr. 2015 Advisor: Zhichun Zhu

• Implemented HiTS (a high throughput memory scheduling scheme that can mitigate Denial-of-Service attacks in multi- core system) in USIMM simulator.

• Proposed and improved HiTS by ranking the running threads based on their demand for the shared memory and giving higher priority to non-memory intensive threads, and performed Auto-Precharge on the open row when there are no pending requests that hit in the row buffer.

• Implemented BLIST, the blacklisting memory scheduler, which classifies all the applications into two groups, blacklisted and non-blacklisted groups, and prioritizes the non-blacklisted applications over the blacklisted ones. Spinning Clock May. 2014

Advisor: Vladimir Goncharoff

• Designed and implemented the prototype programs in the Energia using C to control the MSP430 microcontroller using 10 blinking LEDs to display HH:MM:SS by the Persistence-of-Vision effect.

• Designed and added internal interruption for counting time, and proposed and implemented external interruptions for capturing events of reset button and function buttons to reset the initial time.

• The final product was successfully demonstrated at UIC 2014 Engineering EXPO. Smart Rovio: Car Robot Nov. 2013

Advisor: Milos Zefran

• Designed and improved the pattern recognition part that achieved an accuracy of 96% for recognizing traffic lights and obstacles using IR sensors.

• Designed and implemented control programs for this car robot to detect signals and perform corresponding actions.

• Designed a webpage representation in Dreamweaver using HTML5 and CSS for showing our work and road tests. AWARDS AND HONORS
