PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
       VIDIA Internship                                                                            (May 2017 –July 2017)
         Created Test-Log Parser Framework by creating a python application
         Optimised a parsing python script, achieved an speed up of 270x.
         Created a GUI application for launching regression.
         Updated and replaced the attributes in the map file.
       Internship at CEWiT ,IIT Madras Research Park                                             (May 2016-July 2016)
         Worked in a team of five, on the problem of path loss modelling for 2G frequency signals.
         Developed an android application which acquires different parameters for path loss measurement.
         Analysed the data collected, using MATLAB and fitted the data to a path loss equation.
         Modelled path loss for rural areas just outside of Chennai
PROJECTS
       Mapping Signal Processing Algorithms to DSP Architectures Project                   ( March 2017-April 2017)
         Hardware implementation of DCT algorithm in Zybo board and performed software hardware comparison
          achieved a speedup of 7.5 with a maximum error of 0.04%.
         C code for DCT written in Vivado HLS. Optimisations in addition, multiplication, memory access as well as
          directives were added so as to get the maximum throughput.
         Code was synthesised and exported as ip and connected to Zynq processor, along with a timer module for
          performing the HW/SW comparison.
       Digital Design Verification Project                                                           (Feb 2017-April 2017)
         Implemented the behavioural modelling of MESI cache coherency protocol for a 3 core processor with private
           L1 cache for each core and a shared L2 cache; in Verilog.
         Wrote properties for checking the correctness of the design, identified bugs in the code, and ensured correctness
           of the design.
