My team's goal was to enable Linux OS on some of Qualcomm's modem processor-based chips. We brought together the work of teams focusing on a wide range of tech areas involved in the making of the chips; looking at the project as a whole, we then worked to ensure efficient time and memory consumption. I helped various tech teams with any build issues they faced and helped them integrate their work into the product.

Dr. Gordon Day, President of IEEE (worldwide) was our guest at the conference. Besides hosting and attending conferences, we organized educational events such as field trips and research talks that increased interaction between students and professors outside of classroom. We also helped establish relations between students and leading engineering companies by hosting corporate events such as info sessions and tech talks on campus. Show less

As a TA for ECE 411 (Computer Architecture), the senior design course for Computer Engineers at UIUC, I helped students design single-cycled, multi-cycled and pipelined processors and helped clarify their doubts about various concepts taught in the class.

I assisted Prof. Rakesh Kumar with his research in the field of Computer Architecture.

I serve as a link between all professors and all class assistants working in the Calculus and Mathematica section of the Department of Mathematics at UIUC.I also worked as the Class Assistant for Differential Equations and Linear Algebra.

I helped a section of around 50 students understand important concepts of Differential Equations using modeling tools like Mathematica.
