Experience

I prototyped a large scale simulator of networked embedded security processors. I

developed a compiler for an embedded query language to generate C functions using

Python. I designed and implemented the rmware for a USB Mass Storage Device.

Software, Fall 2006 - Summer 2007

Hillcrest Labs, Inc.

Rockville, MD

I implemented a resource e cient caching system for heterogeneous resources de-

signed for an embedded target. I reverse engineered a 2D graphics engine to reduce

end-to-end latency. I developed a kernel module to interface with a proprietary

input device and graphics hardware. I integrated a regression test framework with

a large embedded system.

Researcher and Lab Manager, Winter 2004 - Fall 2006

Hybrid Network Lab, Institute for Systems Research

University of Maryland, College Park

I developed network security techniques for networks of all scale (sensor nets to

global routing). Additionally, I supervised the research projects based in the lab

and maintained the equipment.

Summer Intern, Summer 2004

SPAWAR SC, O ce of Naval Research

Navy, San Diego, CA

I designed a publish-subscribe data dissemination protocol for use over a wireless

link and developed a prototype for evaluation. I also aided in the testing of various

autonomous robots.

MAODV-UMD, 2003 - 2004

Software

I designed and wrote a user-space implementation of the Multicast Ad hoc On-

demand Distance Vector (MAODV) routing protocol.

ATEMU, 2004

I designed and wrote a simulation and debugging suite for the Berkeley/Xbow

Mica2 motes. Simulations included the AVR ATmega microprocessor and ChipCon

CC1000 RF Transmitter/Receiver.

DDK SMAC, 2004

I implemented a MAC layer encryption protocol for use with the TinyOS operating

system running on the Mica2 motes.

BGP-Inspect, 2005-2006

I implemented a custom database emphasizing speed and size for storage of internet

wide routing information.

dxwin, 2006

I have begun the implementation of a portable minimal X server for small-ish em-

bedded systems.
