Code

My research projects often involve creating open-source code. If you’re looking for the code for a project I’ve worked on, you can find links to it here.

  • Derecho: GitHub
  • Private, Distributed Data Mining: GitHub
  • Cryptographic Accumulators (my undergraduate thesis): GitHub.

I have also worked on a few side projects that involve writing code, and I try to make them open-source as well.

  • Source code for the quotes page: GitHub
  • My Cornell-localized fork of SignMeUp, a web app created by Brown undergraduates to help automate waiting lists for office hours: GitHub
