Experience

Parallel Approach for Genetic Algorithm to Solve the Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Problems

Developed an application that implements the genetic algorithm on a graphics processing unit (GPU) to see if the GPU can overcome the central processing unit (CPU) in terms of performance in trying to solve an NP-hard problem. To test our algorithm, we used some particular problems from TSPLIB to mimic real-world scenarios and have an idea of how the proposed algorithm may work. This parallel algorithm was implemented using standard C++ for the serial version and CUDA C++ for the parallel version. The parallel version is compiled via CUDA. The test libraries included 17, 70, and 443 cities, and each problem was solved with 10, 100, and 500 populations by applying 10, 100, and 500 generations to each. The GPU used in this study was the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060, and the serial version ran on an Intel Xeon E3-1220 V2 3.10 GHz CPU.

Pulumi API Provider for Rancher

Developed a Pulumi API provider that allows seamless integration with the Rancher platform that uses a custom OpenStack cloud platform. The provider was created using C# .NET, and it enables the creation of Kubernetes clusters along with all the necessary resources.
