Work Experience
Web Developer | PhD Student
Matrosov Institute for System Dynamics and Control Theory of Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Sciences
- Developed a spatial web-application for interdisciplinary research. The app deals with the display and processing of various spatial data sources with the help of industry standards (using Node.js, GDAL libraries, and OGC standards).
- Built a task scheduler for the heterogeneous environment as part of my PhD work. The basic idea is that there is a number of distributed web-services that need to work together in an efficient and fail-safe way.
- Created a way to chain distributed web services with the help of scenarios, written in the JavaScript language - writing service chains as regular scripts and invoking services with custom functions (using Google V8 and C++).
- Built an environment of virtual machines that carry software and tools for quick building of web-services. From a user's point of view, the machines can be created with a couple of clicks (using OpenStack and VMware).
- Participated in the development of an input-output system for spatial data in the form of relational tables. The input and output are organized by a set of widgets that allow for the easy and correct processing of the information (using Calypso CMS, Leaflet, and OpenLayers libraries).
