OBJECTIVE 
          	
Seeking a software development position which involves working in the areas of 
databases, graphics, user interfaces, and systems programming. 


EDUCATION           	

M.S. Computer Science, Indiana University,  Bloomington May `92. ( GPA 3.75)
B.Tech Computer Science, Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, India June`90 

EXPERIENCE          	

 * Associate Instructor, Indiana University, Bloomington (From  Aug `90 )
Assisted  graduate students in  Automata Theory and Formal Languages. Taught   
Computer Literacy  (DOS, DBASE, LOTUS, WP, VMS Mail) to undergraduate students.
Responsibilities included lecturing, evaluating and conducting tutorials.

 * Teaching Assistant, Indian Institute of Technology, Madras ( July - Dec `88)
Lectured and graded  an undergraduate course in Fortran.

 * Intern, Material Science Research Center, IIT Madras. (May - June `88)
Developed a software system for  inventory management.
Developed a graphics tool for analyzing and plotting experimental data.


CURRENT	PROJECTS
 * Writing a translator that generates binary relational expressions from 
database query graphs.
* Developing a ray tracing program for hidden surface removal.
 			
COMPLETED PROJECTS

 * Developed a graphical user interface to define database schema and queries
in a graph-oriented manner.
 * Developed a Relational Database Management System for the Office of Space 
Management, Indiana University  for maintaining their work orders & financial 
information. Won the best class project of the year. 
 * Designed a query language and developed an interpreter  for databases  based
on the extended Tarski Algebra in C++. 
 * Developed a Folding  Text Editor  using OSF/Motif. This editor is capable of
folding sections of text, including  gif files into the document, and 
establishing hardlinks to other programs apart from standard features like 
search & replace, footnotes, cut & paste etc.
 * Developed an ImageView program capable of scrolling  and scaling  tiff 
images with animation features in the NEXT STEP environment using the interface
builder.
 * Implemented a shell for the UNIX operating system.
 * Developed an interactive graphics package  using Xlib and Xt intrinsics for 
creating and interacting with 3-D objects. This system included transformation,
filling, clipping (Cyrus-Beck, Sutherland), texture mapping & shading (flat, 
smooth, Phong, dithering) algorithms. 
 * Wrote a z-buffer program for hidden surface removal.
 * Wrote a Scheme Interpreter  in C.
 * Wrote an interpreter for  quadruple form intermediate code generated by 
compiler.
