What's New

Zend Framework

Recently I had the pleasure of doing PHP development on Zend Framework, the leading open-source PHP framework. I must say, I am simply amazed by its power, it takes web development to a different level altogether. Among the many advantages of PHP+Zend are the ability to use the MVC design pattern as well as the creation of the local development sanbox environments which allow the developers to isolate the changes from one another.

Yahoo! Hack U

I and two of my friends (Gautam and Kedar) participated in the Yahoo! HackU 2009 Developer Competition at Georgia Tech and won the "Best User Experience and Design" award for our application, caLLendar.

JavaFX

I have worked with JavaFX for my research work as well as for one of my course projects - One Touch Connectivity. JavaFX is a software platform for creating and delivering rich Internet applications for desktop, browser and mobile phones. To build JavaFX apps one uses a language called JavaFX Script.

Android

I have used Android as a mobile platform for my course project - Location Based Restaurant Search. Android is a software platform and operating system for mobile devices, based on the Linux kernel, developed by Google. The T-Mobile G1 is the first Google phone powered by Android to hit the market. Developed by HTC, the G1 is available exclusively on the T-Mobile network.
