	using the stylus on a Tablet PC. (3 person team, CS490T)
•	Advanced Computer Graphics – projects include perspective-correct 
	texture mapping, projective texture mapping, reflections through 
	environment mapping (CS434)

Miscellaneous Previous Projects	
•	Internet telephone using TCP for directory information and UDP 
	for voice data, with the ability to conference call 
	(3 person team, CS434)
•	VNCR – Virtual Network Computer Recorder – captures screen 
	activity for later playback. (6 person team, CS490T)
•	IRC-style chat client using sockets and Swing, 
	programmed in java (CS180)
•	Engineering Projects in Community Service - worked on a 
	multidisciplinary team to develop web-based academic software.

	(12 person team, CS490D)

Compilers (CS384)	
•	Developed, in java 1.5, a “MiniJava” compiler
•	Sequential steps used Visitor design pattern
•	Generated PowerPC assembly code

Introduction to Computer Graphics (CS334)	
•	Developed a software wireframe renderer using a planar pinhole 
	camera and shared vertex triangle meshes, implementing:
	•	Gourad and Phong shading
	•	ray-traced reflections
	•	later added hardware acceleration with OpenGL
•	Developed an image-based renderer that draws a 3D scene from 
	images with depth maps
