Projects

Twitter Clone Implementation and Simulation using Elixir, [Link]
Implemented both web-based and websocket-based API for Twitter
Wrote simulators acting as clients to test and interact with server
Support 400+ clients active in the same time in Twitter Clone website

Bitcoin Mining in Distributed Operating System, [Link]
Generated “bitcoins” having a given number of leading 0’s using SHA-256 cryptographic hash function in Elixir
Utilized Actor model to make multiple workers work simultaneously and send the “bitcoins” back to server

Movie Recommendation Web System using SQL
Designed the Oracle Database table schema
Wrote complex SQL to analysis and find interesting relationship among data
Dealt with 50K+ movies data and 1M+ other related data such as actor information crawled from IMDB
