PROJECTS :
• Network coding in mesh networks: The objective for this project is to implement network coding modules and evaluate their
performance in wireless mesh networks. The project module assigned aimed to extend the COPE code and enhance it with
dynamic coding decision based on link quality metrics.
• MiniDBMS: This project aimed to develop a miniDBMS in C++ that will support the basic DDL: CREATE, ALTER, and DROP
table queries and DDL : INSERT,SELECT queries with ORDER BY, WHERE and JOIN options. The data is stored on binary files
and a catalog file keeps the metadata information which is lazily updated from the memory. The compiler used is Borland
C++. Index hashing is used in this project for efficient retrieval of records.
• Normalization of tables: This project was developed in JAVA and used javax swing (GUI). The project aims check the database
tables for the 1NF,2NF and 3NF forms and then decompose them to satisfy normalization.
• ICE AGE3: This project aimed to develop a 2d game for XBOX using the XNA framework provided by Microsoft.
• Burger Time: This project aims to develop a 3d game for XBOX using the XNA framework provided by Microsoft
• iPhotoPuzzle: This project aimed to develop a slider and a jigsaw photo puzzle for the iPhones using the xCode IDE and the
iPhone software development kit.
