Projects at Pace university
Use TOR client to protect the users of a social networking site (Facebook).
 We have focused on two primary areas of concern.
 Facebook security
 A tool which will produce a type of IP address and country of origin of an IP address.
Project Specifications:
 Software built on ASP.NET platformwill cull various online sources to provide real-time results.
 Online sources included TOR nodes, anonymous proxy sites, and country of origin of allocated IP address.
 Current concerns of Facebook security including user abilities to limit exposure.
 Email crawlers by determining the authenticity
Developed an android app that consists of various quizzes for kids.
"Educational exercises for 5-year old children / first grade in maths, reading, writing and geography"
 Target First Grade was designed to work on cheap mobile phones (e.g., Nokia 2600c). It was developed in Java ME using
Rational Team Concert and the Eclipse ME plug-in
 The app would have a set of 10 questions with multiple choice answers. The result would be displayed by the end of the quiz.
Android App
An application that provides information and maps for the different campuses of Pace University
 Complete addresses of thedifferent campuses, main phone numbers, and a map with thelocalization of each campus
 The app was built using Android. It was designed to work with Android 1.6 and higher, and for devices with and without
touchscreens and keyboards. Most of thedata in the app was staticand a persistent dataconnection was not required. However,
users were able to access the Internet from within the app by clicking e-mail address and website links. Telephonecalls and
Google Maps werealso launched from within the app.
