CERN — Computer Scientist (CMS placement)
I built CMS experiment tooling — XDAQ in C++, Oracle TimesTen research, and a server-health UI.
I spent a year as a Computer Scientist at CERN in Switzerland, supporting the CMS experiment.
What I contributed
- XDAQ — features and fixes for CERN’s internal data-acquisition library (C++).
- Oracle TimesTen — feasibility research for in-memory database use in performance-critical CMS workflows.
- Heartbeat — a server-farm health visibility UI (Adobe Flex / ActionScript).
