- Developed a C-based user-level thread library for Linux, compiled with GCC and utilizing standard functions from the GNU C Library. The library offers a comprehensive interface for applications to concurrently create and execute independent threads in a round-robin fashion, while supporting thread creation and execution.
- Developed a complete file system software stack in C, based on the FAT (File Allocation Table) structure. The implementation includes functionalities such as mounting and unmounting a formatted partition, reading, and writing files, as well as creating and removing files. The file system supports a maximum of 128 files within a single root directory.
- Developed a covert timing channel for relaying secret messages in Python using Uniform or Exponential Inter-Packet Delay (IPD) distribution. Secret messages were relayed through packets from a buffer, following a randomly generated bit message calibrated to match the source's IPD distribution. Analyzed probability of buffer overflow/underflow based on varying IPD distribution and initial packet count in a predetermined buffer size.
