Projects

  • MindShare Sets Creator And Viewer: (in progress)

    Project I've been the lead on while working at Course Development and Web Services. This is part of a larger effort by the division to create an efficient way for instructors to deliver educational materials to students. Currently unavailable to the public.

    • Written in PHP
    • Uses an API exposed by the Mindshare system developed by our New Media team
    • Javascript interface programming using Scriptaculous

  • Zombie: Document conversion tool (in progress) (SVN)

    Another project I am responsible for at Course Development and Web Services. Zombie is a command-line tool to convert an arbitrary document file to some output. It will utilize modules written for it to specify the exact form of input and output. It is meant to be the engine behind a front-end to be utilized by instructors to create their own valid XHTML documents from a word document.

    • Written in Python
    • Front end will possibly use Ruby or PHP

  • OS Simulator Project:

    This was an educational project that exposed me to the many core concepts of operating system function and design. There were three objectives that dealt with memory management, context switching of processes for multiprogramming, device management, and further explanation of the many fundamental data structures in modern operating system design.

    • Written in C

  • Personal Website (http://scarybear.net):

    I also host a website from my home off a Linux box. It is primarily an educational tool, and so it has seen many different forms (in software and function). The web applications running on it have all been created by me. This includes a blog, file browser for my code, and the administrative tools for the site. I also wrote a simple message board which is now out of use, but is still up for reference.

    • PHP
    • mySQL
    • jQuery
