About me

In my early years, I was programming a lot on so called "Demoscene". Mostly we were dealing there with quite a complicated low-level 2D/3D graphics algorithms. To achive as best as possible performance in terms of the execution time, everything was coded in pure assembler with small C/C++ insets where it was needed. This experiences gave me a strong knowledge of a fast and low-level programming.
Later, I became a full time software developer for a few huge polish companies, what I do today. I have developed many systems on almost any layer of systems architecture. Starting from creating an architecture, developing low-level business logic to creating an user interfaces. These experiences let me expand my developing skills in C/C++ and Java especially Enterprise Edition. Sometimes, I had to deal with Microsoft T-SQL and Oracle PL/SQL. I think, that some of those experiences (in terms of used architecture,algorithms and technology) are quite unique in scale of our country.

In parallel, I am a PhD student on Systems Research Institute, Polish Academy of Sciences.
My most recent published article title is: 4KB PRESENTATION OF SELECTED 3D GRAPHICSRENDERING ALGORITHMS AS AN EXAMPLE OF OPTIMAL IMPLEMENTATION.

Portfolio

Here you can find my recent projects developed in C/C++ and x86 assembler.

Mostly, they are related to 3D graphics rendering algorithms such as Phong and Gouraud shading but some, does a fast and nice back-end calculations for example: reconstruction of a 3D polygonal mesh from volumetric data or so called "flat extender" - a "workaround" framework for skipping 64kb code segmentation of an x86 architecture (Source code).

Marching Cubes

C/C++ implementation of Marching Cubes algorithm. Includes back-end polygonal 3D mesh data reconstruction from volumetruc data and some 3D rendering algorithms. Source code can be downloaded HERE.

3D Studio objects viewer

3D Studio objects modeller viewer developed using C++. Thanks to this application you can view 3DS objects rendered in real time using sophisticated shading algorithms such as Phong or Gouraud. User experience is enhanced through sophisticated mouse controlling algorithm. Source code can be downloaded HERE.

ARTEMEN x86 DEMO
