Evaluation of Diode Linearization Algorithms

Diodes are often used as detectors in wireless receivers. However the emergence of various wireless standards put strain on the ability of the diode detectors to successfully operate under high PAPR stimulus. This project aims to study and possibly demonstrate (and enhance) some commonly used algorithms for linearizing diode detectors.

Estimating coherence misses in single chip multiprocessors (CMP)

Coherence misses are due to shared data between caches. There are true as well as false sharing. One needs to characterize the misses to understand the data dependency better. In this project, we will attempt to model misses due to coherence request from different caches.

Dr. Subhasis Banerjee

Number of interns: 2

Basic understanding of processor architecture, C/C++ programming

 

Augmenting microarchitectural support in high performance network switches

We will explore performance and power optimization strategies on a prototype FPGA implementation of high performance network switch.

Dr. Subhasis Banerjee

Number of interns: 2

Basic understanding of computer network, processor architecture, C/C++ programming

Establishment of MAC DTS

Date and time stamp are most crucial digital evidence in any digital forensic estimation. In this work we will build loadable kernel module for EXT4 and Android file system.

Dr. Gaurav Gupta

Number of interns: 2

Proficiency in Linux Kernel Programming

Digitized Document Frauds

Digitized document frauds require identification of printing and scanning device used in generation of counterfeit documents including currency notes. We would find parameters to automate detection and fixing of counterfeit documents.

Dr. Gaurav Gupta

Number of interns: 1

Very good Image processing skills and should be conformable using C# and EMGU-CV library (Open CV)

Privacy Preserving Forensic Investigation

Privacy Preserving Forensic Investigation would help in reducing the total investigation time of computer frauds and cyber-crime. The work will also ensure that framework would ensure privacy of accused.

Dr. Gaurav Gupta

Number of interns: 2

Good progrraming skills specially python, knowledge of OS and desirable qualifications includes Information retrival, data mining and digital forensics knowledge.

Smart room system installation

We have developed a prototype system for monitoring several parameters inside a room e.g. motion detection, temperature, current, voltage etc. This project will involve understand the whole system and extending the deployment to multiple rooms across the new campus of IIIT Delhi.

Dr. Amarjeet Singh, Dr. Pushpendra Singh

(PhD Student advisers: Nipun Batra, Pandarasamy)

Number of interns: 4 (working in 2 groups of 2 each)

Embedded programming in C preferably in PIC, knowledge on interfacing various sensors with microcontroller, experience in hardware prototype and deployment.

Enhancing embedded code in smart room system

We have developed a prototype system for monitoring several parameters inside a room e.g. motion detection, temperature, current, voltage etc. This project will involve modifications in the embedded microcontroller code - Primarily adding HTTPS (SSL) support and sending data to a cloud service (e.g. Pachube Nimbits).

Dr. Amarjeet Singh, Dr. Pushpendra Singh

(PhD Student advisers: Nipun Batra, Pandarasamy)

Number of interns: 2 (working in a single group)

Embedded programming in C preferably in PIC, basic knowledge on network security, HTTPS/SSL and webservers

Enhancing server side for smart room system

We have developed a prototype system for monitoring several parameters inside a room e.g. motion detection, temperature, current, voltage etc. This project will involve modifications on the server side code for data aggregation. Specific tasks will include UI design for smart room (browser and mobile) and extending part of server side to support other repositories like Nimbits, ThingSpeak.

Dr. Amarjeet Singh, Dr. Pushpendra Singh

(PhD Student advisers: Nipun Batra, Pandarasamy)

Number of interns: 2 (working in a single group)

Experience in Javascript, Jquery, Google Web Toolkit,
HTML, CSS, Django/Web Frameworks, Android/Mobile App development

We have been working on enhancing a current installation of an open source Health Information System, openMRS, in one of the district hospitals in Himachal Pradesh. This project will involve understanding the existing system installation and working towards extending the deployment to another hospital.

Dr. Amarjeet Singh

(3rd year UG student advisers: Apurv Mehra, Sanchit Sharma)

Number of interns: 4 (working in 2 groups of 2 each)
Only IIIT-Delhi students who have completed their second year and would be willing to consider the long term option (through Independent project, BTP and summer internships following year) of doing projects in Health Informatics.

Experience in Javascript, Jquery, Google Web Toolkit,

IVR System

FreeSWITCH is an open source software for hosting voice applications. It has interface to combine it with Speech recognition software to support speech recognition in voice applications. Students are expected to integrate the speech recognition software like Sphinx with FreeSWITCH. They may require to train the speech recognition engine on data collected in previous IIIT-D IVR deployments.

Dr. Amarjeet Singh, Dr. Pushpendra Singh

(PhD Student advisers: Siddhartha Asthana)

Number of interns: 2 (working in a single group) + 1 (for video integration in IVR)

A good knowledge of C, Java and Linux. Linux will be the default platform for deployment and development. All the Opensource software used in this work are written in C. Tweaking them (Open Source Software) requires a good knowledge of C. Students are also expected to have a working knowledge of Java for development of new IVR applications.
