Projects

Cloud Resource Utilization Prediction & Load Balancing

  • Developed a CNN-LSTM-based system for optimizing cloud resource allocation using PSO-GA hybrid optimization.
  • Implemented a load balancer simulator with multiple VMs and tasks (cloudlets) for performance testing.

Cryptography-based Android Application

  • Built an Android app for text encryption and decryption using AES, DES, and RSA.
  • Developed C++-based backend using Android NDK for improved security and performance.

Machine Translation System Using Helsinki-NLP Model

  • Here I create a machine translation system which translate English text to Hindi text using a pretrained model called Helsinki-NLP.
  • In this project I used Helsinki-NLP and finetuned this model using CFILT dataset by IITBombay

Custom Memory Allocator

  • Designed and implemented a memory allocation system in C++ to optimize memory usage and performance.
  • Benchmarked against standard malloc/free, achieving ~20% faster allocations in test scenarios.
