Academic Projects

IRouter: A TCP/IP Router and

TCP. Feb 07

The router

is a fully functional Internet router in that routes real traffic. (user process using

Stanford Virtual Network System). Handles ARP

request/replies, ARP caches, provides timeout

guarantees

and IP routing. Implementation includes a TCP layer with sliding windows and goback-N.

DRFS: Distributed Replicated File system Spr 06

DRFS

implements user level client and server prototypes for a distributed file

system in which the

files

are replicated. The purpose was to explore a service specific protocol, relying

on transactions for

reliable

delivery rather than conventional transport techniques.

APoxy: A Web Proxy Jan 07

A

multithreaded http1.X supporting web proxy that passes requests and data

between a web client and

a web

server, serving cached pages to multiple clients.

MazeWar: Distributed Game Spr 06

Mazewar

is a distributed, multiplayer game that allows each player to control a rat in

a maze and is

based

on the X Window System version of Mazewar

Pintos Operating System.Aut 05

An operating

system framework for the 80x86 architecture that implements support for

kernel threads,

loading

and running of user programs, virtual memory and a file system.

Internet.

Other projects as a part of course

work included a Full Screen Text Editor [Jun 01], an Inventory Management

System for an automobile industry

[Jun 02], a Web based Message Board using CGI [Dec 02], Game of

Snooker on JAVA[Dec

02], a Basic Window Management Package for Browsers [Oct 05], Discovery and

reliable transport implementation for

Wireless Sensor Devices [Jun 06]

Research Work

TINX: A

Tiny Index Design for Flash Memory on Wireless Sensor Devices. Working

with Prof. Philip

Levis,

we are exploring sophisticated data structures and algorithms that work around

the constraints

and

limitations of flash memory to provide an efficient indexing mechanism to allow

value based

and time based range queries.

MStore: As

in-network and local node processing becomes viable, sensor memory is more

relevant.

We are investigating storage hierarchies and

abstractions experimenting with various flash memory chips.

Preferences over

Sets: With

Prof. Ronen Brafman,

investigating value function based approach to

selecting an optimal subset from a given set of objects. In

particular, how compiled TCP-nets can be

used to handle this problem against preference-based

constrained optimization.

ARMP and ButterflyNet: Working as a Research Assistant with Prof. Ronen Brafman and Prof Scott

Klemmer on Adaptive choices through constrained optimizations and

learning.
