Porting CharlesX, unstructured compressible flow solver for Large Eddy Simulations (LES) to hybrid architectures making use of the latest advent of general-purpose computing on graphics processing units.
The technologies used are CUDA and OpenACC. The taken approach aims to extend the solver in a modular way so as to detect and exploit the possibility of using the available accelerators to offload the most computationally intensive part to the GPUs.

Contractor
Designing and developing a decision tree engine solution whose goal is to enable industrial managers to predict the likeliness of a successful investment by filling in different types of questionnaires (via mobile application) which are created by an administrator (via local web application). It consists of two parts/applications linked with a Parse online database:
- A cross platform RESTful mobile application using Cordova and Backbone
- A local RESTful web application using Backbone
This project was not only revolving about the implemenetation but the also about extensive design, proper documentation (project plan, design, testing, infrastructure, implementation, code documentation, user manuals) and interaction with the client through all of the project's phases. The agile development methodology that we chose as a team was a mix of Scrum and Kanban.

System administrator intern
Designing, implementing and deploying the company’s internal DNS infrastructure for clients enabling them to manage their own zone and configure other DNS-related settings.
The project was broken into tasks, Kanban-style. Each task was documented in a very detailed and transparent manner, supported by screenshots. During this project I have worked on setting up the firewall and replication configuration, augmented my shell scripting skills and gotten to work with a new operating system CentOS and the following tools: VirtualBox, CPanel, WHMCS.

OpenMP profiling/optimization tool

November 2015-present
Abstract

This paper describes the implementation and the experimental results of an approach for dynamic configuration of the number of threads used in the OpenMP environment based on the current state of the runtime at the time of the call. For this purpose a mix of profiling and machine learning techniques are used to make the decision about the number of threads. The decision is made at the time of the call to set the number of threads. The following approach is designed to be cost effective in the scenario of a highly dynamic runtime primarily when running relatively long tasks consisting of a number of parallel constructs when it gets difficult to configure the optimal number of threads.

Java Spring MVC Column and Row ACL Security[2]

Feb 2014-Jun 2014

Row security with ACL filtering is already implemented in Java spring with the @PostFilter and @PreFilter annotation and the SpEL expression hasPermissoion. However, a need may arise to filter out the columns too as an additional security measure using the available ACL information. Custom advice has to be created in order to integrate them both, because we need access to the permissions of each row, firstly to determine that access to the row is granted, and then to compare the defined requirements for column security with the same granted permissions to determine if access to a certain column is granted.
