WORK EXPERIENCE & PROJECTS
Nov 2018 –
Dec 2018
Custom Transport Layer Protocol
• Built a Transport layer protocol in python that performed 6 different functions
• Established an IPv4 Server-Client connection that used TCP
• Primary function was to check if the string transmitted by the client was a palindrome
• Offered additional functionality by enabling the client to request the server for the list of
palindromes and deleting palindromes at specific positions from the list
