The code manages any amount of calls between 8 lines, and connects them to the 5 operators with minimal waiting period Github url: https://github.com/Prachi-18/Medical-Call-center.git
• The simulation utilizes C language
• Uses the concept of threads and synchronization for its implementation, and prioritizes callers using FIFO format 8-piece puzzle: The program aims to solve the 8-piece puzzle using BFS, Greedy Best-first search, Uniform cost search, and A* search
• The program utilizes Python 3.8
• The program tries to examine the results of searches in both, weighted, and unweighted conditions DSGN App prototyping: The project was created for the College + Amazon Design Creative Jam. url: https://xd.adobe.com/view/6adf7c32-6c21-45bb-82d2-d325591f12ce-3f8c/
• The app aims to create a safe, interactive environment for students from 13-17 years of age to develop their design skills, and network
