RELEVENT WORK EXPERIENCE
University of Connecticut, Storrs, CT – 06269 May. 2019 – Aug. 2019
Trustable Embedded Systems Research Intern
 Utilized the Arduinos and CAN - bus 2515 modules to build the Controller Area Network.
 Satisfied the four standards of cryptography security, Integrity, Authenticity, Confidentiality, and Key exchange.
 Executed the Spritz hash and HMAC algorithm to make the key-based communication possible using the 20-byte hash.
 Performed the AES algorithm to encrypt the 16-byte message to exercise encryption - decryption on the client and the server
 Applied the Diffie – Hellman key exchange algorithm to make safe communication possible between the client and the server.
PROJECTS (GitHub)
Purifier Bot Aug. 2019 – May. 2020
 Utilized Arduino, ultrasonic ranger, motor driver shield and servo motor to make an autonomous motion possible for the car.
 Exercise the serial communication between two Arduino to make the purification and self – moving motion possible discretely.
Python Simulator for Assembly language (Computer Organization) Mar. 2019 – May. 2019
 Created a python simulator that reads the assembly instruction and simulates the process in memory and registers.
 Added a feature to count and keep track of the 8 bits program, memory, branch and instruction counter.
PRPG sequence generator (Computer Organization) Mar. 2019 – May. 2019
 Programmed middle square method in MIPS to generate the pseudo random pattern using 32 bit seed.
 Used mathematical and logic operations to calculate the average hamming weight and hamming distance between each byte.
Hotel Queue Service (Data Structures) Mar. 2019 – May. 2019
 Used doubly linked list to create the service queue that keeps track of the customers waiting in the line at hotel.
 Implemented different functions to cover the scenarios such as bribe to the manager and kick out customer for misbehavior.
Electric Safety Alarm (Embedded Systems) Nov. 2018 – Dec. 2018
 Used Tivaware C Launchpad with ultrasonic ranger which measures the distance between the object and the ranger.
 Used a buzzer that makes a sound with different pitch and frequency as the object gets closer to the electric line.
