In the past week I managed to instantiate the modules based on the user declared objects. Each C++ declared object is corresponding to an instance module in verilog (you can refer to my previous blog entry for more information ). My task for this week was to connect and wire these instance modules together using the WISHBONE bus interface. The first question came to my mind was “What is the wishbone interface”?. Wishbone is a flexible design methodology used for Read more
I did not get into OAuth like what I was planning to do last week. Instead I was tweaking the application and the back end of the whole application. I started with the GUI application of the revoke page. Previously, I tried to do some Auto complete function on the search tab to speed up the process of finding a certificate. But the method that I choose to implement this function is wrong. What I did was to first get Read more
The objective this week was to create the parts (components) library for the schematic editor. The way we have been implementing it until now is very primitive where we need to hard code all the components details. Although it worked very well for a few number of components, yet it will be very time consuming to write the code for more than 1000 components manually. Hence this week I was experimenting with Fritzing and Inkscape. Fritzing is open-source Electronic Design Read more
This week the developing of the project headed toward new direction. Previously I was working mainly in the web development and Witty , starting from integrating the Codemirror with witty to extracting the user objects IDs (Check out my previous blog entries for more information ). This week the task was quite different in term of the language used 😀 . My task was simply to create the verilog top level module from the C++ code . The top level Read more
After the previous week has finished, this week we were back working on our first project. My task was to generate a UCF that will contain the wiring information. At the beginning of week, I had no idea what a UCF file is, nor how to generate it. Also, since the UCF will contain the wiring information, I had to modify my implementation of the schematic editor components, since they did not have ports, thus wires cannot be connected to Read more
Well, I have finally finished the back bone of the back end. For the generation part, a certificate signing request is firstly being generated and being verified by the root certificate or another verified certificate. The certificate is then stored within folders which has certificate’s email name to ease the process of searching the certificates by searching the email. The certificates could then be revoked and then be placed in a separate “revoked” folder so that the search engine does Read more
This week was not very productive, I have try to understand and figure out how to code this application and try to make the application stateless. The application require user to verify their email address before proceeding to the period selection page. Looking at this, the first question that i asked is how to verify the email address of the user? Thanks to Dr. Shawn I have found the hash Function in the Wt library and was able to hash Read more
This week I have focused on the part of generating a certificate out of the input passed by the front end ie the email and the number of days before the certificate has expired. The post request is firstly processed to separate the number of days and email from the string using stringstream. Then the common name required for the certificate input would be extracted from the email. The other subjects required for the certificate would be set into default. Read more
The task of this week was completely different. We were asked to do some engineering design work .The client company wants to build a device that has the following: CPU + RAM SD card Wifi/GSM Camera Battery So our task was to pick up the suitable components based on the requirements given. The camera for example was requested to have a frame size of 800×600 and the ability to take 25 frame per second. The task was not easy as it Read more
Doing an internship at a small company is significantly different that doing it at a multinational firm! This is my seventh week here at AESTE and I can honestly say that the experience you will find here is like no other. Let me rewind back to the start of this week to see what I mean. Before this week, we were generally doing programming. It was fun, and challenging, and we definitely learned so many things. Then we got an Read more
