Experience Section
• Application Developer, Oracle India Corporation LTD., Hyderabad, July, 2015-Present :
◦ Working as an Application developer, my primary role is to develop Oracle e-commerce suit.
◦ The main goal of this project is to customize the existing store and agent module as an e-Commerce
project by using custom catalogs, pricing lists, etc.
◦ Participated in the entire phase of development cycle from design, implementation and testing etc.
◦ Key Technologies used are: Java, RQL, Java Script, Node.js, AngularJS, apache tomcat.
M. Tech Thesis
• Algorithm : Find the seed set in a social network by which influence can be maximized at the end of
diffusion process.
◦ There are crores number of possibilities to select the seed set from a social network. To check each and
every solution takes more time and memory.
◦ So, greedy approaches like linear threshold model, cascade independent model, time constraint based
approaches do not give better results in proper time.
◦ In this thesis, a Cuckoo Search Diffusion Model ( CSDM ) is proposed which is based on a meta-
heuristic approach known as the Cuckoo Search Algorithm.
Paper Published
• Cuckoo Search for Influence Maximization in Social Networks ( Proceedings of 3rd International Conference
on Advanced Computing, 2015)
◦ The approaches which are already existing are greedy approaches, genetic algorithm and ant colony
optimization, Even-though these existing algorithms take more time for diffusion, they are not able to
generate a good number of influenced nodes.
◦ In this paper, a Cuckoo Search Diffusion Model ( CSDM ) is proposed which is based on a meta-
heuristic approach known as the Cuckoo Search Algorithm.
◦ It uses fewer parameters than any other meta-heuristic approaches.
◦ Parameter tuning is an easy task for this algorithm which is the main advantage of the Cuckoo Search
algorithm.

MAJOR PROJECTS AND SEMINAR
• Solving Travelling Salesman (TSP) Problem Using Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) (Course Project)
◦ Conventional ACO algorithm cost takes too much time to convergence and traps in local optima in
order to find an optimal solution for TSP problems.
◦ This Project proposes an improved ant colony optimization algorithm with two highlights.
◦ First, candidate set strategy is adopted to rapid convergence speed.
◦ Second, a dynamic updating rule for heuristic parameter based on entropy to improve the performance
in solving TSP
◦ The proposed algorithm in the project has better performance than the conventional ACO algorithm
and the results of the proposed algorithms are found to be satisfactory.
• Mailing Client Application (Course Project)
◦ Storing, retrieved mails and allowing the user to read mails.
◦ Retrieving mails from a POP3 server as common on the internet today.
◦ Composing new mails and a ’reply’ function
◦ Sending mails keeping a “persistent state”, i.e. mails should not be lost when the client is closed/restarted.
◦ Providing a visually appealing and easy-to-use graphical user interface.
• Hotel Management System (Course Project)
◦ The Purpose of this project is to ease the daily or regular activities of the ’Hotel Management’ into an
automatic computerized retrievable process
◦ The daily activities includes the Room activities, Entering details of the new customer check in,checkout
◦ To allocate a room as per the customer need and interest
◦ Recording the checkout time and details, Releasing or Empty of room and to record the process in a
computer system for future
