Welcome to my site.
Hi, welcome to my site.
I am a student studying a Masters of Electrical Engineering at the University of Melbourne. I have completed a Batchelor of Science (Electrical Systems) and a Diploma in Computing.
My interests lie in Computer Hardware Design and the operations of tech companies.
I avidly read tech sector and business news, and enjoy analysing business decisions and trying to predict their outcomes.
My formal resume is available here. Please feel free to reach out to me at joelgrun@gmail.com.
I run my own:
A simple DNS benchmarking program written entirely in C from scratch. The program tests against a known list of websites and has a number of popular DNS servers, but allows more to be added on invocation. Servers are tested in parallel and feedback is proviede during execution, before the final results are presented.
A script I wrote to automatically build packages from the AUR (Arch User Repository), and to assemble them into a repository. The script has a simple configuration file which enables package signing, should that be required. The feature I’m particularly proud of is the ability to build packages in parallel, allowing the script to run much quicker at the cost of system resources. I use it to build my own repository every two hours.
A project for a university subjects to implement a CPU on an FPGA. This was a great experience to learn the fundamentals of hardware design and assembly programming while being guided along the way.
