Dept., System Administration, Florida International University, Miami, FL. Worked on several projects. Investigated security tools to monitor networks (NIDS). Used Snort/ACID/Barnyard in Linux systems to monitor the C.S. Dept. Network. Installed a "Honeypot" computer to log intruders. Programmed a set of tools in Perl to inventory magnetic disks in a storage system and to allow users in a network to backup files and retrieve information about the existing backed up files. Used synchronization mechanisms to allow for parallel processing of jobs and for state recovery of the system, similar to an Operating System. -Researcher, Research Experiences for Undergraduates: http://ranger.uta.edu/~reu/, April 2004 - August 2004, Artificial Intelligence Lab, Univ. Of Texas at Arlington, TX Worked with a group of students on a "Smart Home" Project. Designed physical/mathematical model for light sensors to interact with lamps in rooms in order to detect anomalies in lighting systems. Used transformations/matrices to construct a grid of rooms and programmed such model. Used Apple's Rendezvous Technology to simulate autonomous interactions between sensors and lamps. Investigated the physical properties of photocells, conducted experiments and analyzed data using GNU plot. Created GUIs using FLTK/FLUID/C++ to demonstrate how an anomaly detection system should work. Learned how to use the X10 protocol within the WISH project. -Computer Lab Assistant, January 2003-Jun 2004, Computer Science Department, Florida International University, Miami, FL Cloning, installing software, reporting and investigating problems.
