Present: | Open source / personal projects:
- Author of several plugins for Miranda IM (multi-protocol instant messaging client), all plugins are written on Microsoft Visual C++:
- Whiteboard plugin - a multi-user whiteboard which is actually a collaborative real-time editor for SVG files. It's an implementation of Shared XML Editing protocol over XMPP (Jabber). The plugin also makes extensive use of other technologies: in addition to storing whiteboard internally as a vector document in SVG format, the document is rendered using an OpenVG backend, which, in turn, uses OpenGL API.
- New Away System plugin, which manages status messages and status requests from other clients. The plugin has a wide list of features, like autoreply, custom messages for some contacts, scripts in status messages - a very flexible system which allows to customize status message behavior for people who don't know programming or don't want to create a special plugin just for a single nice status message trick.
- Spam Filter / Autoreplier plugin which uses regular expressions to filter incoming messages and authorization requests, and optionally replies with a user-defined message.
- Other plugins, like ContactSettings (manages per-contact settings in a convenient way), XStatusNotify (notifies when contact changes his extended status; uses sophisticated heuristics to properly filter excessive status changes), ClientChangeNotify (notifies when contact changes his IM client), LogService (a service plugin which provides functions for logging into a file), DataAsMessage (a service plugin for transmitting arbitrary data through usual messages), etc.
- Various patches to Miranda IM core and its base plugins.
- An analog of Supaplex game for iPhone (C++, Objective C, OpenGL ES, iPhone SDK, XCode).
- Pocket PC driver for an infrared keyboard, and a front-end which shows a tooltip with graphical formula representation in realtime when typing formulas in TeX format (written in C++ for Windows CE platform, using Embedded Visual C++).
- A tool for batch conversion of formulas in Microsoft Word documents from TeX format to usual Word formulas (Microsoft Visual C++, COM) - this tool along with my keyboard driver were used by me in university to maintain electronic lecture notes, instead of writing on a paper.
- Software part of an iris recognition system (my master's work at university) - this software uses various image processing algorithms and a lot of smart heuristics to do segmentation of an input image (find iris on it) and to extract iris signature from the image. Recognition is done based on this signature, by comparing it to a database of previously extracted signatures. The software is written on Microsoft Visual C++ using MFC and MySQL.
- Various scripts for Adobe Photoshop and Adobe InDesign (written in ActionScript or VBA).
- Forum (written in PHP + MySQL).
- Music library - a program which generates and maintains a list of all albums existing on a hard drive and allows to generate an HTML report, containing names of all artists, albums and songs (Microsoft Visual C++, MFC, MySQL).
- MIDI file player for MS-DOS (written on Watcom C++, uses assembler to work with sound card).
- 3D labyrinth game for MS-DOS. It uses techniques and programming tricks similar to old Wolfenstein 3D game. Written on TMT Pascal + assembler.
- Winner and participant of district and regional programming olympiads in school.
- Was a member of programming olympiad team in university.
