  • chevron_rightTask Mapping in Many-Core systems
    Our main aim of this project is to propose and compare algorithms for obtaining low energy mapping onto many-cores. To cope with complex dynamic behavior of applications, it is relevant to perform task mapping during runtime, hence, heuristic approaches are taken instead of exhaustive search of the solution space. Some heuristic-based algorithms proposed previously consider placing tasks in order of largest communication volume. But the Placed Communication First (PCF) mapping algorithm introduced by Trahan and Elbidweihy and refined here performs task mapping based on largest volume of communication to already placed tasks rather than overall communication volume. Experimental results show that PCF provides average reduction of 41% communication cost compared to other algorithms on real application task graphs. To explore the problem space, we also consider randomly generated task graphs and make use of a scheduler with region selection in addition to mapping, showing similar results. The PCF mapping algorithm outperforms other mapping algorithms in many situations. github

    Implemention of BFS, DFS and ASAP-ALAP with required details. BFS DFS ASAP-ALAP
  • chevron_rightSimulation of Carbon Nanotubes and its behavior.
    The main purpose of the project is to simulate and test the structure of Carbon Nanotube. Besides the simulation of structure of Carbon Nanotube the focus is also kept on the behavior of carbon atoms and their connecting bonds when a huge amount of physical force is applied on them. (CUDA/OpenGL/NVidia GPU). github
  • chevron_rightImplementation of TCP/UDP using RED, DropTail, and SFQ algorithms in Network Simulator.
    Network simulator is software or hardware that predicts the behavior of a computer network without an actual network being present. In simulators, the computer network is typically modeled with devices, traffic etc. and the performance is analyzed. Typically, users can then customize the simulator to fulfill their specific analysis needs. In this Project, we present a modification of the NS-2 code for the TCP/UDP standard protocols by adding the attributes specified in RFC 3550 that the native code which includes algorithms like RED, Drop tail and SFQ algorithms.
  • chevron_rightDynamic (OSPF) and Static Routing using Cisco Packet Tracer.
    Open shortest path first (OSPF) is a routing protocol which was first defined as version 2 in RFC 2328. It is used to allow routers to dynamically learn routes from other routers and to advertise routes to other routers. Advertisements containing routes are referred to as link state advertisements (LSAs) in OSPF.
  • chevron_rightImplementation of Chat process between Multiple Clients and Server using Python.
    The major aim of the project is to send and receive the data between multiple users and the server in one instant of time and to terminate the connection after the information is successfully sent. The Code for both the client and the server is written in python programming language. github
  • chevron_rightImplementation of OFDM system in MATLAB.
    Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is the key technology for the next generation wireless communication systems. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is successfully used in 4G in mobile communication systems and in terrestrial video broadcasting systems. It is also showed it is a strong contender for upcoming modulation technique of future wireless communication systems. In this project, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is simulated and verified that can be adopted for wireless communication applications. Bit Error Rate (BER) and functionality of the OFDM model is analyzed for Fourier based OFDM (FFT-OFDM) over AWGN Channel. Besides, based on the given OFDM system a simulation model is implemented using MATLAB.

  • chevron_rightDesign of FPGA Based Robotic System for Aiding Partially Paralyzed Patient.
    Multi-specialty hospitals catering to increasing number of patients have limited number of assisting nurses. Presently, the nurses provide both important and minor assistance to the patients. However, they are inadequate to cater to the overwhelming number of patients. The patients, especially the partially paralyzed patients, need assistance in their routine chores such as picking and placing articles etc. The most effective solution to this vexing problem is to design a robot control system which can move about, pick objects and deliver to the patients, all controlled by the patients themselves. This assistance naturally will relieve the patients as well as the nurses. We propose FPGA based patient care and assisting system that takes orders from the patient and control a robot to act accordingly. The Proposed Robotic system uses Xbee Pro to receive patient orders from a Decentralized Nurse Station System (DCNS) wirelessly.
  • chevron_rightImage Compression using SPIHT algorithm.
    The aim of the project is to compress the images without much loss of data using 2D compression method. The proposed scheme is applied in a set of grey scale, color, and medical images. The wavelet transform is applied on input images. The wavelet co-efficients obtained from 2D wavelet transform are then compressed using Set Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) algorithm. The encoded data is again compressed using Huffman algorithm. The proposed scheme is implemented using MATLAB, which includes GUI based control. github
  • chevron_rightGesture recognition system to control Robotic System
    This project is based on developing applications using hand movements in air and to demonstrate it. A gesture sensor i.e., hand motion sensor using 3 axis accelerometer is used which is a wireless sensor. The system is designed in such a way that one can enter password not with keypad but by his hand gesture/motion in air. The sensors used are accelerometers which have tremendous application in various fields. The various applications of the sensors are in the field of automation and security. The main objective is to learn new technologies, new protocols and different new algorithm approaches which could be implemented in low cost microcontroller with limited code memory and RAM.
