PROJECTS:

College Projects:

1) WAN optimization through “Application indipendent caching”.

Duration: Currently working(From August 2007).

Sponsored by: NEO ACCEL, Pune.
Team Size: 4
Environment and Tools used : Windows XP, VMware Workstation ( to simulate a
network), Windows DDK, WinDbg 6.7.05(to debug target machine), VC++ ( Win32 API
and native calls to create client to access driver).

Description: As most of the computer users are using WAN excessively and normal
LAN applications are moving over WAN ,traffic over WAN is increasing exponentially.
A substantial amount of the traffic moving over WAN is by retransmission of
previously sent data packet.
We are avoiding retransmission of already transmitted data through application
independent caching. Here UIC(Universal Indentification Code) is assigned to identify
the data packets sent
between the client and server machines.
We are implementing a AICC(Application Indipendent Caching Client). Which
will be installed on both sending and receiving machines and running as a daemon
process.

2) College website using ASP-AJAX control toolkit

Duration: January2007-April2007.
Client: College Project.
Team Size: 3
Environment and Tools used: Windows XP, Visual Studio 2005, ASP.NET AJAX
control toolkit.
Description: This was a project to implement our college website using ASP.NET
AJAX Control toolkit. We implemented a complete website including library system
integration, student registration etc. and making it more responsive with the use of
AJAX.

Hobby Projects:

Following are some projects which I did without any obligation. These were mostly
meant for exploring new areas of computer science and turning my ideas to reality.
These projects are a result of my passion towards computer science and software
development. Most of my free time is devoted towards development of similar ideas
or improving on already developed projects.

1.) A Basic Operating System

Duration: July 2007 to current
Team Size: 3.
Environment: Linux (Ubuntu 7.04), GCC.
Description: We have developed a very basic, single user operating system from
scratch having a bootloader and a shell. The operating system is made into a single
executable, which the bootloader loads into memory after booting the system.

2) .COM Infector in 0x86 Assembly Language

Duration: August 2004 to Sept. 2004.
Client: Hobby Project.
Team Size: 2.
Environment and Tools used: Windows XP, TASM.

Description: A simple Virus was implemented having basic strategies of Copying

Self Code to another Executable and Propagating itself (by searching in the current
working directory).
This was a simple COM infector (as the name suggests only .COM files can be
infected). As the COM files can have only 64kb size to adjust in the memory so need
to adjust the RELOCATION HEADER.

3) TSR Removal from Memory in 0x86 Assembly Language

Duration: Sept. 2004 to Oct. 2004.
Client: Hobby Project.
Team Size: 2.
Environment and Tools used: Windows XP (In the DOS Environment), TASM.

Description: A simple program was made in the 0x86 Assembly language to remove
the TSR (Terminate but Stay Resident) from memory (This took care of multiple TSR in
the memory).
This is useful in DOS Systems to remove the TSR from memory ( if any present )
( Nowadays no one uses DOS , so it’s of very limited use BUT same thing can be
implemented in Windows Systems to remove the Hooks that is very Similar to TSR ).
