Server Monitoring Tool
• Solely developed a server monitoring tool that reports status of the services
hosted on any of the Jabong Servers.
• Created XML Parser to convert client’s Xml input to string format.
• GUI based on WPF provide users with Tachometer representation for displaying
Process activity.
Technology Used- C++, C++ CLI, XML, C++ (Sockets and Multithreading), CSS, JavaScript.
• Developed a remote code publisher, local client, and communication channel that supports client
access to the publisher from any internet enabled processor.
• Developed HTTP-style request/response message and file transactions.
• Developed a one-way communication, allowing asynchronous messaging between any two endpoints
that are capable of listening for connection requests and connecting to a remote listener.
• Facilitated users with the transmission of byte streams of specified stream size (File
transfer between client and the publisher(server)).
• Publisher accepts source code files from the local client (".cpp", ".h" and ".cs").
• The publisher then runs dependency analysis tool developed previously to find dependencies
between files.
• The publisher then creates HTML web page files for the source code files including the linking
information (i.e. linking all dependent files) and supported navigating to those files.
• Also provided support for Lazy Download and IIS Download.
• Facilitated GUI that supports-
1) Upload source code files to the Remote Publisher.
2) Display the web page for any file in that file list by clicking on a
Download Button.
Technology Used- C++, XML, Tarjan’s Algorithm
• Developed a type-analysis tool that extracts lexical contents from source code
files- “.h”, “.cpp” and “.cs”, analyze the code syntax from its lexical content and generates and abstract syntax tree.
• It analyzes the Abstract Syntax Tree and builds a Type Table.
• It then scans each source code file and uses the type-table to find out the dependencies
between files.
• It also finds strong components using Tarjan's Algorithm.
• Stores the dependencies and strong components using NoSQL Database(developed previously).
Technology Used- C++, XML
• Developed a Key/Value in-memory database using unordered-map and templates persisted to
an XML file.
• Facilitated users with a Query Engine that let them query the database.
Technology Used-
C# .NET, WCF, WPF, XML, Multithreading
• Developed an Automation tool that tests the functionality of multiple client's codes
concurrently.
• It provides users with continuous integration into the baseline (Local Directory used).
• Developed a query engine.
• Used WPF to facilitate user with Interface for XML input, uploading files and output.
Technology Used-
Java, XML, Firebase, JSON, Google API's, Maps, Animations

Technology Used-
Java, XML, Firebase, JSON, Google API's, Rest API, Animations
• Designed and developed movie store application that holds movie information using a
recycler view.
• Application extracts movie information in a JSON object and stores it on the firebase.
• Implemented navigation drawer as a part of user interface and used open source API for
animation.

the shortest route to navigate (implemented using shortest path algorithm).
• Other functionalities include- Driver and Ride feedback, Emergency aid services.
Pranjul worked in my team for about 1.5 years, and I have had a tremendous time leading him. He is one keen fellow, who maintains a regular enthusiasm to learn. I have seen him coming up with new ideas and design alternatives regularly. His contribution has been a key stone in completing number of POCs that we proposed in HydraStor Backup solutions, starting from his work on pacemaker,DRBD & corosync, to developing migration methodologies for newer open source utilities.
Pranjul has a keen interest in computer science and has been maintaining a non-ending zeal to work in this field. He has been a heartthrob of many office-mates for extra-curricular activities, sports, and out-of-office events and parties.
I wish him all the very best in his new endeavour for higher studies and his wish to work in developing new technology.
Pranjul worked as MTS for my team at NEC. During this time he showcased skills of a dedicated, sincere employee who is focussed towards results/end goals He worked for various modules which required perl, C/C++, python skills. He also volunteered for customising open source solutions like Corosync, DRBD and Pacemaker for server clustering. During this tenure I found his systematic and logical approach towards problem solving very useful for the projects.
He is an excellent team player focussed towards project goals.
