OBJECTIVE

A career in applications software development.

EDUCATION

M.S in Computer Science at Oklahoma State University, OK (GPA:3.79/4.0).

B.Tech in Electrical Engineering at J N Technological University, INDIA (80%).

EXPERIENCE

Serving as Programmer/Lab administrator at Oklahoma State University.
	Responsibility includes assistance to users in software packages such as
	word processors, spreadsheets and drafting packages, recommending, 
	installing, and maintaining software and hardware needed for the lab.

THESIS

Object-Oriented Data Structure Animation using MS-Windows SDK.
	Data structures and the operations done on them, such as insertion, 
	deletion and traversal are shown in the form of pictures as the program 
	executes. This package is useful in teaching. It is implemented in C++. 

PROJECTS

Simulation of an Operating System with a Priority based Scheduler.
	Different parts of an Operating System such as Ready Queue, CPU, I/O 
	devices, Memory etc. were simulated.

Simulation of an Operating System with Round-robin Scheduler.
	An Operating system including the architecture of a stack based 
	Computer was simulated. Spooler, Loader, CPU, I/O queue, Memory were 
	simulated. A Paged Segmentation memory manager was used.

A Graph Drawing Package, using Object Oriented techniques in C++.
	A package to draw 2-D graphs was developed. A small spreadsheet was 
	developed which is the input medium to enter data. The spreadsheet and 
	the user interface (Menus, Dialog Boxes) were developed in DOS.

An Editor using Index files and Hashing.
	In this editor a file can be viewed a page at a time. A page can be 
	inserted, deleted, or scrolled one at a time. A file can be searched for
	a given word.

Microprocessor based Control of Stepper Motors.
	The project involved designing the amplification circuit, writing 
	software to drive the stepper motors in two directions and at variable 
	speeds. The motors were used to drive two arms of a Two Dimensional 
	Robotic Arm. 
                        
Implementation of Extendible Hashing method of Data Storage and Retrieval.
