ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Estimating Waiting Period using MATLAB – The project was to calculate the waiting time in the system & waiting time in the system & waiting time in the queue by changing number of people, arrival rate & service rate in the given system by changing values in the MATLAB code. Network Analysis using wire shark – By using Wireshark software we can track which IP address and TCP port number is used by the client computer. Also, I found out which port number the IP address is sending and receiving TCP segments and to initiate TCP link between client and source computer by changing the sequence number

Estimating Mean Square using Python – In this project I calculated Mean Square of the given data by using Python code and created tables and graphical representation of the data. Amazon Web service project – In this project I created an EC2 instance with a key pair, giving a role to the instance, then using systems manager tab selected a target and managed that instance and by using sudo command started running that instance and finally after completion of the project terminated that instance. Multifunctional smart robot – In this project I built a multitalented smart robot which can sense atmospheric changes, can detect metal underground, also can fire on enemies with a gun built on top. By using microprocessor and ADC the robot was programmed and with Bluetooth connected to laptop it had mobility with 30m radius from the control. Using software language VB, the microprocessor was programmed to initiate the commands given by the user.
