I still remember when I immigrated into the U.S; there were so many obstacles I had to face in life and school. All of difficulties, including financial hardship, the barrier of language and culture had a critical impact on my life. However, living in a family with many members who immigrated to U.S long time ago, who are engineers and have a better life just because they point me the effort. Without the effort, you cannot be successful in this country. I have a passion of programming code and building electronic circuits. I always wonder how the IC chip is made and the person who did it has to be so “talented”. I cannot imagine there is billions of a transistor in a tiny IC chip. That inspires me curious to learn more about this field and so I decided to pursue electrical engineer with the focus on VLSI field. I remember my professor told his class that VLSI circuit is everywhere from our computer to cell phone, tablet, and whatever electronic device we are using. That is so impressive statement aspiring me to keep following this field.
Back in sophomore and senior year at the University of Washington, I had great chances to work on some in-depth capstone projects: SRAM memory, two-stage op-amp and MISP processor design. Working on these projects gave me a ...

... and skills I developed through school and internship. Throughout the projects, I build up my work experience and develop a number of skills, especially problem solving and the creativity. I helped my company debugging the faults in load board design and silicon test chip. I also came up with ideas to make work efficiently, such as reducing testing time for BIST on a test chip by testing all instances SRAMs and ROMs in parallel instead of testing one single instance at a time, developed an independent process, temperature and voltage supply for reference generator circuit. Now as a fast-changing technology area, with scaling down so significantly, VLSI design and embedded system are extremely challenging for engineers, especially for test engineer. With the support of my current company, I decided to go back to school to earn a graduate degree to advance my skills.
One year later, I got another added experience which is summarize in earning my bachelor degree I had to work on my first research project titled “International Strategic
It is critical to initiate change in the culture of intelligence professionals in this new changing support environment. Setting the conditions and training to a strategically deployable capability must be embraced by the TIB/MIBs in each operational theater. Moving beyond the imprinted habits of Cold War intelligence support to the GCC, the MI culture must change to meet future challenges. The MIB must expand its intelligence support beyond the ASCC headquarters in order to truly fulfill its role as a modular intelligence unit. Emergent threats or critical intelligence requirements require an in depth knowledge of a geographical area and groups or individuals that operate in them. This level of detail can only be provided by analysts that are dedicated to one particular geographic area on a steady basis.
The Donald Trump campaign for the GOP presidential nomination has transitioned from a much touted brief flash-in-the-pan scenario, to what can only be characterized as a phenomenal political juggernaut… The billionaire real estate mogul has the entire political establishment on their heels as he continues to defy political gravity and conventional presidential politics. It is a foregone conclusion that the Republican Party political standard as well as the social-conservative brand is mutable going forward. Moreover, election 2016 may in fact swing in the balance given the apparent juxtaposition between the economic super class and the political
In recent years, several colleges and universities have adopted Embedded Xinu, a modest OS developed in 1984 at Purdue University. Using Embedded Xinu provides a homogeneous form of teaching at a low cost to implement. Due to its simple design, Xinu is ideal for courses on operating systems, embedded devices, networking, and compilers. Xinu currently operates a wide array of devices including the DEC PDP-11, Motorola(R) 68000, Intel(R) x86, and MIPS IV architectures.
...o cultures the way I was. The logical and practical approach that this experience has given me has also heavily influenced my love for engineering which I developed while working in Professor Maruthi Akella’s Aeronautics Engineering lab in UT Austin. The precision of the mathematical aspect along with the creativity of the design aspect make engineering the perfect mechanism for exploring my capabilities and exceeding my potential.
After I graduated with honors, I knew exactly that I want to work for improvement of my country in the sphere of new technologies. I took a project work in National Innovation Fund. My task was to organize 1st Republican conference on commercialization of technologies. I did it and my team got very high evaluation of work. I think that was a big contribution to development of my country.
In today’s world where several different domains of technology must imbricate to pacify the rapid pace of development, it is necessary to take a multifaceted approach to learning. While Electrical Engineering major courses like Microprocessors, Embedded Controllers and Digital Electronics have exposed me to computing and data storage at the lowest level, chosen Computer Science courses like Computer Systems and Programming, Data Structures and MOOCs like Algorithms, Machine Learning and Software-as-a-Service have equipped me with the latest knowledge and ideas to capitalize on the digital systems as efficiently as possible. Two initial advanced courses in Mathematics have stre...
My Engineering degree has given a strong foundation to my analytical skills since civil design involves a lot of long, complex and intricate calculations and the application of basic math skills. Over the past four years, I have been working part-time with my family firm, SnMTech Systems. I am also the co-founder and active member with FOE - Friends of the Environment. I have assisted in the installation of Enterprise-wide Resource Planning (ERP) System at Blotech, a major Engineering Company. More than what I have studied in school and college, it has been these experiences that have shaped the person that I am today.
