Course Projects

• Centre Power Awareness

• Developed a dynamic runtime environment for HPC which would provide trade-off between performance, energy and thermal characteristics of the system with the help of monitoring, analysis and feedback

• Code Optimization for Scalar and Parallel Programs

• Implemented a source-to-source compiler using Cetus to allocate data structures in the correct MCDRAM based on the thread location on Intel KNL architecture for OpenMP programs

• Real-time Operating Systems

• Implemented different scheduling and resource allocation policies with EV3RT kernel and LEGO Mindstorms to operate a line following robot, segaway and obstacle avoiding robot

• Created a client-server based IoT-cloud interaction with Nordic nRF51 board and SDK along with Raspberry Pi

• Compiler Construction

• Implemented the scanner, parser and IR stages of a basic source-to-source compiler for the C language using C

• Parallel Systems

• Created own message passing library for parallel programs using Socket programming in C and optimized it for round-trip timing

• Parallelized and accelerated a serial program for simulating the surface of a lake using CUDA programming, OpenMP, OpenAcc and MPI

• Reduced power consumption of the cluster, by using DVFS to throttle frequency, for NAS Parallel benchmarks

• Operating Systems

• Modified the XINU kernel implementing Process Scheduling Algorithms, Locking Techniques for Reader-Writers Problem, Process-centric Garbage Collection, Buffer cache management and Disk scheduling

• Quantum Computing

• Solved a factoring problem on qOp (DWave simulator)

• Built logic gates (AND, XOR, half-adder, full adder) into a Quantum Machine Instruction(QMI) and QUBO to port on a bi-partite graph supported by DWave

• Used Quirk to build Toffoli and adder circuits

• Implemented various circuits using Quantum gates on DWave Leap HW with the Ocean sdk, IBM Q with qiskit and Riggeti with the Forrest sdk
