Algorithm development:

Design and implementation of complex 3D algorithms on triangulated models.
Development of C++ template wrappers library which provides uniform interface for 3d triangle structures. This allows to implement complex algorithms using generic programming
Simulation of complex mathematical models (Some examples: simulation of part of olfactory bulb; parameter identification of crystals on physical measurement)
Large amount of algorithm competition problems.

Database application development:

Experience in design and development of relational databases.
Some of them follow:

Application "Cadet". (2001-2002)
Information technologies and applications used: Borland Delphi, Interbase DBMS, Visual Basic for Applications.
Input data: information about cadets, marks of them, subjects etc.
Output data: ready to print MS Word and MS Excel documents of reports (examination sheets, summary sheets, appendixes to certificates etc.).
Application "Timetable of lessons" (2002)
Application is used to automate processes of making out, editing, displaying, and generation of timetable of lessons. Was developed as Bachelor Degree thesis.
Information technologies: three-layer architecture with thin client. Client: Java-applet. Business logic platform - Tomcat, DBMS - MySQL.
Small-scale database applications (2001-2002) using PHP and MySQL.

Algorithm design and implementation
Technologies:	C++ (STL; MS Visual C++, Borland C++ Builder) SQL (MySQL, Interbase; MS SQL - beginner's level) Java C# - beginner's level PHP, HTML, JavaScript, CSS XML (DOM, DTD, XML Schema) UML - beginner's level Borland Delphi Assembler (IA-32) OpenGL - beginner's level
Operation systems:	Windows, Linux (beginner's level)
