MASTER THESIS “Implementation and experimental analysis of Asynchronous Distributed Gossip Algorithms” Includes: - Study of the complexity of gossip in an asynchronous, message-passing fault-prone distributed system through two different algorithms – called EARS and SEARS – which encompass different trade-offs between time and message complexity. - Implementation of these algorithms using YALPS, an open-source Java library designed to facilitate the development and testing of distributed applications. - Experimental Evaluation of the algorithms; figures and statements of results taken after testing the algorithms both in simulation and in real-world mode. Experiments in real-world mode have been executed on a global research network called PlanetLab.

MATHS RESEARCH “Axisymmetric Poiseuille Flow of Newtonian fluid under pressure-dependent viscosity” Includes: - Study of Poiseuille flow in a cylindric tube under pressure-dependent viscosity; Continuity equation, momentum equation and velocity components for this incompressible flow. - Isolines, two-dimensional line plots and three-dimensional shaded surface showing the evolution of velocity, using Matlab Language.
