Publications
While working with the Open Search Foundation in the EU, I co-authored a technical research paper with professors and researchers from European institutions including Erasmus University Rotterdam, the Leibniz Supercomputing Centre, and TU Munich. It was presented at the 5th International Open Search Symposium (OSSYM) at CERN, Geneva.
- Conceptual Design and Implementation of a Prototype Search Application using the Open Search Index — Read on Zenodo
Writings
As part of internships and coursework, I’ve written several technical papers:
