About

whoami

Software developer located in Taiwan. B.Eng of Computer Science of National Sun Yat-sen University (as in 2018). Now working for Lumina Inc as a senior C++ developer and software architect. I’m also a FOSS developer posting random bug fix and enhancements.

Interests and expertise

My main expertise is modem C++(post C++11), GPU computing(OpenCL, HIP), Physically Based Rendering, Machine Learning (the computation part) and backed development. I also have experience in Realtime 3D Graphics(OpenGL), high-performance computing, Linux and reverse engineering.

I’m also a free and open source software developer. I love and believe the mindset behind FOSS. I try to fix bug in software I use if I encounter them and implement feature if I need them. Most of my recent contributions goes towards the Drogon Web Application Framework.

Major Projects

• Drogon – Fully featured web application framework for modern C++. Focusing on absolute performance
• SimpleRay – A simple Path Tracer with PBRTv2 scene format and Embree support
• embree-arm – A port of Intel’s Embree ray tracing library ported to run on ARM CPU
• ぶれないアイで – A music video/demo of my home-brew path tracer
• Etaler – A very fast and GPU capable HTM framework.

Tools I made

• dremini – Server and client for the Gemini protocol based on drogon
• language-chaiscript – ChaiScript syntax highlighting support for GitHub Atom
• model2pbrt – Convert model files into PBRTv2 format
• HTMHelper – NuPIC.core abstraction wrapper for easy development
• tiny-htm – The fastest Hierarchical Temporal Memory library on the CPU for the time being. (Now slower then my other library, Etaler)

Expertise

• Modern C++ – I have been a long time C++ user and have built most of my projects in C++
• High Performance Computing
• Data Science – Combining with my knowledge in C++. I build high-performance data analysis tools.
• Computer Graphics – Started out being a graphics programmer. I have implemented my own OpenGL and Path Tracing engine.

Conference talks

• I love games yet why movies look better – SITCON 2016 (Unconference)
• Introduction to GPU computing with OpenCL – SITCON 2018, video
