ENGINEERING PROJECTS
Bellini, Summer Research Project May 2015 - September 2015
▪ Handled signals from the datapath to enable smooth communications and data exchanges between the controller and the datapath by Python
▪ Realized some algorithms on the controller side to generate different paths such as paths with the largest bandwidth or lowest delay
▪ Measured and organized various kinds of significant statistics, and put them into clear Matlab figures ▪ Contributed to the write up of the background, motivation and conclusion part of the research paper ▪ Attended SAVI testbed presentation and successfully presented a poster explaining the basic concepts
of Bellini Temperature Monitor Project, Digital Logic Course Project Fall 2014
▪ Broke down program specification into its simplest elements and translated this logic into Verilog language and implemented the circuit using an Altera FPGA on a DE2 board
▪ Adapted a temperature sensor module to the design for temperature detection and delineation ▪ Realized instant visualization of temperature change/temperature profile/temperature-induced ani-
mations on a monitor via a VGA adapter ▪ Reacted responsibly to problems and made technical corrections and modifications to ensure high-
quality assurance of the design ▪ Shortened the working schedule by a week and added extra complexities to the generic applications
of the design
Map Design Project, Communication and Design Course Project Jan 2015 - May 2015
▪ Implemented a sophisticated application by C++ that reads in a database of all intersections and streets in a city and draws the resulted map using EasyGL
▪ Injected user friendly features such as finding travel routes between two intersections and giving di-rections to users
▪ Simulated real-world conditions to find good driving paths for a courier company driver to complete the list of daily deliveries
▪ Prepared engineering reports, demos, and presentations outlining critical project progress to justify the design decisions made
AELabs Experience, Introductory Electronics Jan 2015 - May 2015
647-229-8533 Si Yi Wu (Cecilia) [email protected]▪ Digitally re-configured analog circuits on printed circuit boards using programmable digital poten-
tiometers and analog switches ▪ Controlled analog circuits using NileDelta and designed analog circuits to meet certain specifications ▪ Analyzed complex circuits and understood the behaviours of electronic components such as ampli-
fiers, diodes, and transistors ▪ Fostered analytical skills of drawing logical conclusions from laboratory observations and calculations
Designed Team Chair, Engineering Strategies & Practices Course Winter 2014
▪ Analyzed a problem statement from the client and collected sufficient information to precisely de-fine the scope of the project, which was redesigning a better hanging garden
▪ Researched on manufacturing materials, generated five creative designs and exercised technical ex-pertise to modify and enhance the final design in details
▪ Recommended the most satisfying prototype to the client in a 20min presentation
OTHER RELEVANT EXPERIENCES Administrative Staff, the ETA Wealth Group May 2014 - June 2014
▪ Organized and updated the company’s website to provide a clear image of financial trends ▪ Filed and organized clients’ information in certain format to allow easier data access, streamlined
the overall access time by about 10% ▪ Advised clients on an analytical base of their specific concerns ▪ Familiarized corporation operations and skills that are transferable to other working areas
Vice President Finance, Engineering Chinese Club 2014 - Present
▪ Committing to the largest and the most influential student clubs in the faculty which has 300+ formal members and 1000+ general participators
▪ Monitoring the club’s financial activities by clearly and precisely recording all the club’s revenues and expenses
▪ Applying for different kinds of funding and seeking external sponsors, and have successfully secured a new sponsor
▪ Provided a feasible budget for the year through careful calculation and estimation, and have gained approval from the president and the students’ union
▪ Designing, organizing, and executing events of various scales to help engineering students gain social networking, idea exchange, festival celebration, and recreational communication opportunities
VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCES
Student Ambassador, Globex Exchange Program, University of Toronto November 2014
▪ Represented the school to promote popularity and familiarity of Globex, an exchange program for engineering students to broaden their horizons abroad
▪ Illustrated interesting prospects of the international program to walk-in students and imposed them with good impression
Receptionist, the Liberal Party rally, Toronto June 2014 ▪ Performed important administrative supports to the reception, coordination, and successful progress
of one of the biggest rallies in the local community ▪ Inspected on various demands of voters from different societal segments and discussed concerns with
them ▪ Greeted genial guests and guided them to destinations with gratitude and gracefulness
