Limes Superior was a project to create an integrated project and digital asset management system for animation and game development studios. I created the backend of this system. This involved evaluating user and system requirements, creating design documents, coding and testing the software, and to support the front-end developer. Web services: 1. Node graph database 2. File upload/download service 3. Authorization service

Together with the graphics developer we created the particle engine and its corresponding particle editor for Might & Magic Heroes VI. Also I designed and implemented the multiplayer and most of the online features of this game, the network protocols, client-side asynchronous network APIs, and the server-side scripts.

Working on a research project, I implemented a distributed, cross-entropy method based data compression algorithm on a cluster of 16 Sony Playstation 3 game consoles. This involved network programming and making low-level optimizations exploiting the Cell architecture. The prototype algorithms that were the inputs for my work were written in MATLAB.

As a member of the Warhammer: Battle March developer team, I ported all the mulitplayer and online features to the Xbox 360 LIVE platform. This involved creating client-side asynchronous network interfaces and UI programming.
