Open-source scalable full-stack web application framework for Java. Accomplishments: implemented extremely fast asynchronous network protocol framework (one of the fastest in the world), fast HTTP and WebSocket server, rich-GUI Java framework (based on AngularJS and Bootstrap) and more...
Open-source persisted in-memory database for Java that sacrifices scalability to offer ACID transactions, high-performance “joins" (through graph-based relations) and ultimate simplicity of use and maintenance. Accomplishments: implemented self-compacting changelog, “offheap" data structures with predictable performance (no GC jitter), automatic path optimization of complex “joins" (graph traversal).
Experimental multi-paradigm dynamic programming language. Accomplishments: implemented function closures, reference-counting garbage collection, pattern matching engine for collections, AOP interceptors.
