\[1\]Redesigned and redeveloped the Graduate Student Record System (G.S.R.S) used by the College of Graduate Studies. Technologies used were Unified Modelling Language (U.M.L), Rational Rose 2000 & SDLC.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\[2\] Researched and developed a framework that utilizes DCOM for distributed Problem Solving. It provides for the coding and execution of a parallel algorithm by a number of networked windows running Microsoft Windows. Effectiveness of the COPS system was shown by implementing parallel breadth-first search used in conjunction with a branch-and-bound algorithm for the Traveling Salesman Problem. Technologies used were . Net framework, VB.Net, DCOM & XML.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\[3\] Developed a relational Schema for XML documents and a way of storing document contents into the relational database. Used Java API for XML processing (JAXP) to parse the XML documents and JDBC to connect to the relational database to store the XML data using the developed approach.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\[4\] A case study on deploying Voice over IP (VoIP) over an existing IP-data network of a small enterprise.Traffic measurements were performed using SNMP over the network, to analyze it using queuing analysis.Minor changes to the network were proposed. OPNET simulations were performed to support the results.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
\[5\] Optimized NURBS parameters using Simulated Annealing' to obtain smoother curves and surfaces, faster.
This idea can be incorporated in the latest CAD and CAM systems for improved visualization of data.It can also be used in faster reverse engineering of curves and surfaces, a problem faced by machine body designers. The research was done in MATLAB 6.0
B.E. (Computer Science) from Osmania University. Passed in first class with distinction. Some of the courses taken were: § Software engineering, § Computer networks, § Database management, § Computer graphics, § Object Oriented Analysis and Design (OOAD) § Real Time Systems My under-graduate project was based on J2ME (Java 2 Standard Micro Edition). In this project, a Mobile Information Device (M.I.D) was made to contact an HTTP Internet server gateway to retrieve real-time information of stock quotes of different companies.
