First Week in Aeste

On the first day, another intern and I met Dr. Shawn in the office. He directed us to setup some tools for the office usage and he also gave us a talk about the concept of gitflow. Just like every other intern, Dr. Shawn treated us a lunch at the Read more…

Backtracking

For the most part of the week everything was going according to plan. Setting priorities right, we decided to focus on the flow of the application which meant making sure that the application is ready to be used by the end-user with its core functionality done. So far, the Poco Read more…

First Week of Internship

On the first day I met Dr Shawn I was briefly introduced about the company and job scopes. Then, I was given a task to study about Git because I never use it before. I take about 2 days to finish all of the tutorials. After that, I continue studying Read more…

Time is Never Enough

I thought taking few days off the week would leave me regretting for my work productivity as the time spent would not be enough. However, this week went alright. Well time is never enough of course, but this week was slightly better than some of the weeks before. I paused Read more…

FreeRTOS Memory Heap Problem

This week I pushed my basic FreeRTOS port onto a release branch on GIT (yay) as functionality is good. It’s very simple. It has 3 apps related to USB, FPGA and TCP/IP. The USB CDC app task maintains the state of the driver and creates another task whose job is checking the status of certain global Read more…

Of SegFaults and Compiler Errors

Not as Smooth as I’d thought

Week 5. I continued working on utilizing FreeRTOS for our board as last week I had done a very improper implementation. In my inexperienced eyes, everything was working, but more and more issues were appearing. That’s when Dr. Shawn took a look at the chaos I’ve created. Basically I didn’t understand well Read more…
