Creating a Virtual Environment on an AWS EC2 Ubuntu 20.04 Instance

I required a multiple hop environment for a Networking course I was taking at NCSU in my final semester of my Masters program. The goal of the project was to simulate Go-Back-N protocol and to do this we were required to transfer a file in bytes across the internet. You can read more about that… Continue reading Creating a Virtual Environment on an AWS EC2 Ubuntu 20.04 Instance

NCSU Inventory Management System

The almost instant realization for need of this project came from my newly found love for being in the Troxler Lab at NCSU in the ECE Department. During my initial “walk-through”, I noticed a real demand for a web-facing inventory management system. The current system was implemented with an excel spreadsheet. It was extremely error… Continue reading NCSU Inventory Management System

Bit Fusion for Acceleration of Deep Neural Networks Computation

This was my final project for my graduate ECE-564 course. The project uses hardware to process matrix multiplication such as how neural networks operate. I designed a very cost-effective and low area utilization using the Verilog hardware descriptive language. I then later synthesized the design using a program called Synopsys. This modeled the performance and… Continue reading Bit Fusion for Acceleration of Deep Neural Networks Computation

Memory Consistency Model Simulator

This program was written in an effort to simulate different memory consistency models and how they effect performance of modern processor systems. The program uses a text file with assembly instructions as inputs. It then parses the instruction and follows the specific memory model’s rules for ordering or the relaxed allowance of re-ordering to complete… Continue reading Memory Consistency Model Simulator

Automated Soil Weighing Machine

This was my senior design project. We were sponsored by NC Department of Agriculture and tasked with automating the soil sample weighing process. They manually weigh approximately 6000 soil samples per day. This is the solution we designed and manufactured over a two semester period (Spring and Fall 2020). The vast majority of components were… Continue reading Automated Soil Weighing Machine
