Work and Research Experiences

Stony Brook University, Computer Science Department	9/98-present
Research Assistant Designed and developped *Texture Visualizer, an software with supporting libraries to exploit the fragment processor of the modern GPUs to accelerate graphics (eg. volume rendering) and non-graphics applications (e.g.. flow simulation). Basis of my PhD dissertation. Worked on physics-based simulation of natural phenomenon accelerated on graphics hardware. Developped Win-Volvis 3.0, a comprehensive Volume Visualization Package for Windows. Long Island Software Award (LISA) 2000 winner nominee. Developped Cost Effective Virtual Colonoscopy on a PC*, Long Island Software Award (LISA) 2000 winner.
Siemens Corporate Research (Princeton, NJ).	6/03-9/03
Summer Intern Developed the visualization module for a product of Stereotaxis, including the functionality of volume rendering, MPR, Developed a registration prototype for BioSense Webster.
Viatronix, Inc. (Stony Brook, NY).	5/00-1/02
Senior Intern Worked as system designer and main developer of *V3D-Calcium Scoring* and *V3D-Explorer. Invented techniques to accelerate texture-based volume rendering (Patent pending). Involved in V3D-Colon*, a technology transfer of research work on virtual colonoscopy of Stony Brook University.
Stellar Services (New York, NY)	5/99-5/01
Consultant Designed and developped the *Manpower Management System for Bristol-Myers Squibb Company*, used for manpower data visualization and projection for drug testing.
eCommerce Technology Inc. (Cupertino, CA)	5/98-9/98
Summer Intern Initiated and developped Photo3DPlayer 1.0, an ActiveX plug-in to display 3D object photorealisticly using image-based rendering. It is the ancestor of Net3D Player 2.0 of eCommerce Technology Inc.
Buton Information Inc (Xi'an, China)	9/95-9/97
Programmer Developped the *Office Automation System* for the Second Color Tube Plant of Shaanxi Province. Developped the *General Exam Paper Generating System*.
Xi'an Jiaotong University, Institute of Artificial Intelligence & Robotics (Xi'an, China)	9/92-12/97
Research Asistant, Lecturer Worked as the system designer & principal developered of the *Simulation System of Railway Scheduling, for the North Station of Zhengzhou, China, the largest railway scheduling station in Asia. Involved in the development of the Auto Shape Recognition System* for highway and bridge toll booth. Developped *WMesa 2.3*, the Windows version of Mesa, an OpenGL like GUI.
