Hey! I'm

Harshadeep Kambhampati

I'm a student at The University of Texas at Austin studying computer science and mathematics.

About Me

I'm Harshadeep, a CS and Math double major at UT Austin interested in computer architecture, SWE, systems, and cybersecurity. Motivated by a strong sense of curiosity and excitement for exploring new unknowns, I'm always looking for opportunities to challenge myself and grow!

React

I have used React extensively across most of my different fullstack projects, especially for hackathons, as my frontend framework of choice. When designing FactFlow, an AI-powered academic query engine designed for UT research labs, I developed an engaging frontend interface through React.

Projects

Charon: Secure Cache

Charon is a gem5 simulator core and cache modification built on top of the GhostMinion secure cache system (MICRO 21). We optimized the secure cache design and improved how they interface with microarchitectural prefetchers and replacement policies.

C++

Python

gem5

BASH

CUDA Programming

Implementing different parallelizable algorithms on the CPU and GPU using NVIDIA's C++ CUDA Toolkit. Gaining practice with CUDA programming techniques and observing CPU/GPU performance differences. Algorithms include convolution, n-body simulation (shown here), prefix sum, etc.

C++

CUDA

WebGL

Skinning and Animation Rig

Created an interactive linear blend skinning + animation system rendered using TypeScript and WebGL. Users can manipulate any 3D COLLADA model interactively and create animations interpolating across keyframes.

TypeScript

WebGL

Autonomous Navigation Robot

Created a competition robot composed of an ESP-32 microcontroller and several sensors. Developed autonomous color-sensing, line-following, and obstacle-avoidance routines in C++. Breadboarded all electronics designed model using SolidWorks.

C++

SolidWorks

Bambu Studio

ARM Pipelined In-Order Processor

Developed an ARM processor in C that simulates the 5-stage pipelined processing of instructions from a simplified ARM ISA. Performs static branch prediction alongside instruction forwarding and hazard control.

ARM Assembly

BASH

SSH Brute Force Attack Research

Examined the energy and computational costs of brute force attacks on SSH servers. Simulated attacks using the Medusa CLI. Observed a 25% increase in idle energy wastage and a 66% increase in CPU clock speed overhead. Working to publish.

Matplotlib

Pandas

Linux

Raspberry Pi
