Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit (MAP) 4.0

Team: Solutions Accelerators Team

Software Development Engineer in Test

MAP is a powerful inventory, assessment, and reporting tool that can securely run in small or large IT environments without requiring the installation of agent software on any computers or devices. The inventory and assessment capabilities provided by this Solution Accelerator can significantly simplify the planning process for migrating laptops, desktops, and server computers to Windows® 7, Windows Server® 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista® and Microsoft Office 2007. The server virtualization scenarios help identify underutilized resources and the hardware specifications needed to successfully consolidate servers using Microsoft Hyper-V technology.

MAP performs three key functions: inventory, compatibility analysis, and readiness reporting. It collects and organizes system resources and device information from a single networked computer. MAP performs a detailed analysis of hardware and device compatibility for migration to Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, Microsoft Office 2007, Microsoft Application Virtualization, and Windows Vista. MAP generates reports containing both summary and detailed assessment results for each migration scenario.

Portfolio optimization using Neural Networks

A portfolio is a combination of different investment assets mixed and matched for the purpose of achieving an investor's goals. The efficient frontier is a graph that represents a set of efficient portfolios that maximize expected returns at each level of portfolio risk.This project involves the application of a heuristic method based on artificial neural networks in order to trace out the efficient frontier associated to the portfolio selection problem. A particular neural network model, the Hopfield network is applied to the portfolio selection problem.  This includes cardinality and bounding constraints. These constraints ensure the investment in a given number of different assets and limit the amount of capital to be invested in each asset. This project presents some experimental results with the application of neural network heuristic. These results can then be compared with those obtained with other heuristic methods.

   Key Accomplishments

·         Involved in Analysis of the existing Portfolio Optimization techniques.

·         Algorithm design for the portfolio optimization problem using the Hopfield Neural Network model

·         Implemented the existing portfolio optimization technique using Hopfield Neural Network using C#.Net and MATLAB (arxiv.org/pdf/cs/0501005)

·         Tested the results by varying the cardinality and bounding constraints

·         Fine-tuned the existing algorithm using Pareto Optimality algorithm and came up with optimized returns for investments.

Virtual Information and Spec Tracking Application (VISTA)                            May 2005 – Nov 2005

A Spec Management system is that which tracks documents across the Intel factories. The Fab Sort Manufacturing units use VISTA as their Specification Management system.  Its capabilities include authoring, editing, routing, approving, distributing documents and Read and Understood (RnU) tracking, while keeping the Sites in sync. The specifications are required on the factory floor as instructions to the machine technicians during the different phases of the Chip manufacturing. Intel factories use the Spec Management Systems developed on top of a third party product called Documentum. One of the most important objectives is to create a transparency about the underlying Content Management System, in this case Documentum. This is accomplished using the Design Pattern – Abstract Factory.         

Key Accomplishments

·         Involved in redesign of the Virtual Information and Spec Tacking Application

·         Designed and enhanced Inbox, View and Search modules of Virtual Information and Spec Tracking Application using ASP.Net, C#.Net.

·         Involved in Black Box and White Box testing of VISTA.

·         Modified the Notification Jobs written using DocBasic Script to run at specific intervals.

·         Involved in Manual testing of VISTA

·         Performed Unit testing and tracked the defects using Mercury’s Test Director.

·         System tested the EOL Solution for FSM using VuGen(for recording the user’s actions) and Mercury’s Loadrunner(for Virtual Users - Load).

·         Used Perfmon for monitoring the resource usage during System testing.

Environment

ACADEMIC EXPERIENCE                                                                                              2002-2007

eBookStore using .Net and XML

eBookStore is an online book purchase portal developed using ASP/C#.Net and XML. Some of the features were authentication, admin management, shopping cart, search, book purchase, etc. All the features were in the form of Web services. The XML files used DTDs and schemas for validation. In order to retrieve the records from XML files, XPath query was used along with DOM and SAX.

XML Digital Signatures using .Net for eBookStore

The XML file that contains the order details such as credit card number contains critical data. Thus, these files were signed digitally using Digital Signatures for XML available in .NET. An Enveloped signature was created here using predefined methods available in .NET. The order file is digitally signed using the API’s and the signature is embedded in the file itself. Using this, the receiver can check the correctness of data.

Fuzzy Traffic Signal Controller in Prolog

The main goal of this project was to estimate the amount of Cycle time for vehicles during a stop signal. According to the Volume of traffic in each signal, the Cycle time is computed. Several fuzzy rules were defined based on the number of vehicles behind the red, green and yellow lights and the Cycle time was calculated. This system was developed using Prolog.

Tested the functionality of a VB Application using Rational Robot

User interaction with the application was recorded using test scripts. Several loops, conditional statements, verification points were inserted to these scripts in order to test the functionality of the application.

Placement information system using Visual Basic

This system helps to access the student’s placement details and is not limited to add new records, modify by the Administrator. The backend was MS Access and front end was using Visual Basic 6.0.
