Major Open Source Projects

-

drogon

Drogon is an production ready, extremely fast C++ web application framework. I'm a maintainer, wrote the coroutine subsystem, various bug fixes and joins community development. I have developed commerical product using it. Drogon easily handles C10K on an embedded system and C100K on a standard server.

Etaler

Etaler is a high performance implementation of Hierarchical Temporal Memory, a biologically inspired machine learning model developed by Numenta. At the time of release, Etaler is more than 20x faster than the community developed HTM.core on CPU and another 2x faster on a GPU.

embree-arm

embree-arm is the world's first functional port on Intel's Embree ray tracing kernels for ARM processors. Though not maintained. This project inspired the embree-aarch64 project (using the same porting approach) to provide up-to-date ray tracing kernels for ARM.
