I taught COP 3503 for the Fall 2012 semester.

I worked as a Software Engineering Intern at NVidia during Summer 2012 in the Tegra Android Graphics team.

My name is Shayan Javed, and I am currently a PhD student at the University of Florida in the CISE department. Dr. Jorg Peters is my advisor.

My academic interests are: Computer Graphics, Surface construction, GPU Computing, Algorithms and Theory, Human-Computer Interaction.

Other interests: Virtual Reality, Web and graphic design, Drawing, Soccer, Videogames.

• Comment Save: A Google Chrome extension which records your comments/posts in realtime across many sites. Keeps a history of your records along with where you made them and when.


• Deferred Shading + Ambient Occlusion in DirectX 10: Demonstration of deferred shading and ambient occlusion in DirectX 10. Shows how to render to multiple textures, apply ambient occlusion and gaussian blur and render composite texture.


• Evaluating Bicubic Bezier Patches using (Py)OpenCL: Demonstration of two different methods for evaluating Bicubic Bezier patches in OpenCL. Implemented in Python using PyOpenCL.


• Getting started with OpenGL ES 2.0 shaders on Android: Simple tutorial to demonstrate mesh loading (.off and .obj files), gouraud shading, phong shading, texture mapping and normal mapping on Android.


• Shadow Mapping - Android OpenGL ES 2.0: Demonstrating Shadow Mapping using shaders on Android OpenGL ES 2.0.
