Bachelors of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering
1. Final Year Project: Array Product Line based on meta-programming.
• The Array product line was a Windows Application developed with Microsoft Visual Studio.
• It generated user selected codes for arrays in a .c file under another windows application
(TurboC).
• C# was used as the back end coding language.
• The project was supervised by Dr. Chiranjeev Kumar, Associate Prof., Dept. of CSE, ISM,
Dhanbad.
2. Internship Project: Research on IP addresses fragmentation by ISP’s
• The project was designed to study the various reasons leading to address fragmentation on the
internet.
• In the process we were able to propose a method to estimate the same using various AS Path
data obtained from global router data repositories.
• The project was supervised by Dr. Raja Kumar Murugesan, Prof. National Advanced IPv6
Centre, UniversitiSains Malaysia.
