Other Projects

Programming Languages Known

C#

I have learnt and programmed using C# for over two years. I have developed applications for the project "Landcover Classification using Damspter-Shafer techniques" using Visual C#. These applications had to be algorithmically strong and still be as user-friendly as possible. I have also actively developed applications with the new Windows Presentation Foundation programming model and have written a number of programs using them.

Java

Three years of active programming experience. This includes work that I have done while I was associated with Innovations Lab, IIT Kharagpur, and other projects that I had undertaken on my personal interest. I had developed a complete system that kept track of books in a library using Java. I had also developed Graphics applications like a version of the LOGO language written by me in Java. I have written numerous tools to help in programming, including a search facility for helper functions in Java, saving code files to syntax highlighted html pages, etc.

C

I have three years of programming experience in C. I have taken a course in my undergraduate program, "Programming and Data Structures" that involved practical laboratory work involving programming in C. I obtained the highest grade, 'EX' in that course. Besides that, the project "Serial Communication Protocol to Ethernet converter" involved extensive coding in Dynamic C.

Professional Experience

May-July 2006: Yahoo Software Development, India

I did an internship at Yahoo! Software Developement Pvt. Ltd. at Bangalore, India during May 8th-July 14th, 2006. I worked under Mr. Saikumar Sanagala on a project titled 'Mongo', which was a new version of Yahoo! Mail that targeted users with relatively older browsers who would not be able to access the fully featured new version of Yahoo! Mail. It was a challenging internship as it targeted a property that was extremely sensitive and visible to external users.

Nov 2003 - Nov 2005: Innovations Lab

For a period of two years I was a Java group member of Innovations Lab, IIT Kharagpur. During this time, I worked on a project to digitize the hall libraries of the campus. This software was implemented in Azad Hall of Residence. I am currently a Java Group head of the Java group and I am continuing the work of making a web-based administration software for the Training and Placement Section, IIT Kharagpur.
