INTERNSHIP/WORK EXPERIENCE:

QUALCOMM (Summer internship for 2010)

I worked with the Qualcomm Native Platform tools team on designing a tool for dynamic and static binary

instrumentation.

I was involved in extensive research on previous work done in this field and worked on designing an

instrumentation tool that could be used on the native platform.

Wrote Programs in C/C++ for the user interface which generates the required machin e instructions for ARM

and THUMB. The program was also instrumental in choosing the apt veneer space for use in the caller

instrumentation and also the callee instrumentation.

Participated in the Intern Qualcomm Innovation Fest and won the FIRST place for an innovative idea. (The

idea was a design of a traffic regulator based on wireless sensor nodes)

I-PHONE Application Development:

Directed Research under Professor Michael Zyda to develop an I-Phone application to integrate the voice mail

inbox in the Iphone itself.

DRDO-LRDE India ( A Radar division)

Worked on Antenna Technologies and Wireless reception.

Designed algorithms such as Steepest Descent and Least Mean Square algorithms in MATLABTM.

GRADER POSITION

Presently working as a grader under Professor Paul Rosenbloom for the subject Artificial Intelligence.

PROJECT EXPERIENCE:

1) Distributed Application using Parallel Computing Architecture :

The project dealt with the implementation of a scaled down version of MAP/REDUCE system fro m

GOOGLE.

The Mapper and the Reducer modules were coded in C/C++ and were run parallely at the high performance

computing center (HPCC) for processing huge amounts of user input.

2) Enhancements in Operating systems(NACHOS)

Implemented synchronization primitives for Thread synchronization.

Implemented system calls for the operating system and also calls such as Fork and Exec to support

multiprogramming in NACHOS.

Designed a demand paged virtual memory system to support multiple processes in the operating system.

Implemented a fully distributed system by including the network capability for the OS.

3) Building a fast and reliable FTP protocol:

Design an IP based file transfer utility.

The utility aims at achieving the best possible speed on a 100 Mbps link.

4) Yahoo! Finance & Facebook Mashup

Yahoo! Finance is an online service that gives us free access to company finance content on the Web, including

stock quotes. This project provided an interface to search and display stock quotes from Yahoo! Finance using Perl

scraping code and post them to Facebook.

5) Android Facebook Application for posting photos Use Java code with a combination of the Android SDK

and Facebook APIs.

Develop an ANDROID app that allows a user to select his choice of photos and then upload them on to his

Facebook Wall.

The same was implemented for Windows 7 Mobile using the Microsoft Visual Studio, Windows Phone 7

SDK and Facebook.

6) Socket Programming:

Simulated a race among 4 cell phone units to reach a target before running out of battery or going out of range with

the help of 2 base stations. All communications took place over TCP and UDP sockets.

Complete project description: http:/www-scf.usc.edu/~pasupart/

7 ) Implementation of the following algorithms:

Greedy, A* and Uniform Cost search Algorithms for finding the most optimal route.

Game play Algorithms such as Minimax algorithm and Alpha Beta Pruning.

Implementation of Backward Chaining Algorithm for Robots to answer questions.

Implementation of Fuzzy logic algorithms to answer questio ns that was asked to the program/Bot.

8) Measuring Network Performance and tuning:

This project was directed towards measurement and analysis of the bandwidth delay pro duct and also the

Throughput on gigabit links in the DETER testbed. The iperf network measurement tool was used to collect

all the details.
