[edit] Past work

I along with my friend Kakoli did some work on Grid Computing when we were studying BTech.
We were successful in implementing a grid test bed using only Free and Open Source Software.
You can find the complete documentation here: [1]
Some other small stuff can be found at: [2]

[edit] Currently working on

A project involving RHEL 4/SLES 9, mpicxx and lots of cool distributed design and implementation techniques.

   2. Implementing a demo grid test bed with the help of ILUG-CAL
   3. An application level memory manager for efficient memory management in memory hungry software
