Internships and Academic Projects
· Currently researching on distributed simulation of power system performed on Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) in Power System Automation Lab (PSAL) and its communication over internet through LabVIEW programs. Used C# to design programs for capturing packets from the network and access databases to read and write the measured data.
· Designed a controller for stepper motor on TI LF2407 DSP using Code Composer Studio (CCS). Carried out development and debugging of applications for motor control on CCS.
· Designed and implemented a Multi Client chat program, TFTP Server & HTTP Proxy Server through C (Fall 2008). Simulated high speed TCP variants like BIC, CUBIC, PERT and H-TCP on NS 2 (Network Simulator) and analysed the results.
· Design of software music decoder and music synthesizer using MATLAB (Fall 2008).
· Bachelor’s Final Year Project (Jan–May’08): Design and Implementation of Real Time Multi Layer Feedback Neural Network Controller on a Bytronic Process Control Unit. Flow and level control were implemented.
· Internship at Honeywell Automation India Ltd., (Summer 2007): Designed Distributed Control System (DCS) through Honeywell proprietary EXPERION PKS R300 software for Caustic Soda Plant. Designed control logic for filter sequences and assisted in preparation of Hardware Design Manual (HDM)/(SDM) for the same.
