FileManagerDemo

(File Manager – A Demo of a WCF Self-Hosted Service & Client "Tester" Windows Form Application Exchanging Files) This project presents a simple File Manager Service and Client Application demonstration. The File Manager is a self-hosted (service host) WCF application launched and managed with a simple console interface. The client “tester” has a simplified GUI user interface to quickly demo and test the service (Windows Form Application).

Generation-Shift-Factors-Contingency-Analysis-Power-Flow-Study-AC-vs-DC-Methods

The project required the computation of the generation shift factors (GSF) based on a defined generator bus outage using the fast-decoupled XB version. The GSF values were used to approximate the post-contingency branch flows based on a pre-contingency branch flow and the generator output before the contingency. The AC power flows were compared with the DC method for the MW and MVA flows. Source code is provided in the same WinZip file for the functions calculating the generation shift factors and the approximated post-contingency branch flows.

This project will present an applied and game-like approach to simulating the load growth, investment decisions by two types of generation technologies, demand-price responsiveness, and reliability, of a test-case power system. The simulation begins as a 9-bus system with existing generation (3 generators) and transmission lines (8 lines). System topology can be viewed in a figure throughout the game with the yearly generation and load at each bus. In addition, dynamic color-coding is used to highlight transmission lines that exceed MVA ratings and highlight bus voltages that violate any limits. The winning objective of the player company (you) is to maximize his profit. Reliability can be tracked by viewing the N-1 generator and line contingencies every year, but this does not influence profits. There are two generation technologies used: coal and gas turbine. Each technology will have a similar competitor in the simulation. The competitor can bring down the market price and reduce the player’s profits significantly. The clock starts at T=0 in the investment game with a historical record of past prices and projected prices based on lack of investment. As time moves forward in yearly increments, the load, prices, investment costs, and other variables are adjusted to that of the player’s performance. The player has the opportunity to study various profitable and unprofitable investment alternatives each year of the simulation. If he invests at the right location, and in the right planning year, his company can make windfall profits. Competitors randomly participate in adding extra generation in random areas of the system based on the competition level settings. The challenge for the user is to study the effects of his investment decisions on market prices, reliability, and his profitability.

The project required the computation of the Line Outage Distribution Factors (LODF) based on a user given branch outage number using the fast-decoupled XB version. The LODF values were used to approximate the post-contingency branch flows based on a pre-contingency branch flow and the base branch flow before the contingency. The AC power flows were compared with the DC method for the MW and MVA flows. Source code is provided in the same WinZip file for the functions calculating the LODF values and the approximated post-contingency branch flows.

ChatDemo

This project presents a simple Chat Message Service and Client Application demonstration. The Chat Service is a self-hosted (service host) WCF application launched and managed with a simple console interface. The service prints to the console window the user activities (log on, log off) and what messages are sent to users. The client “tester” has a simplified GUI user interface to quickly demo and test the service (Windows Form Application). The GUI has features to log on, log off, send a message, and receive messages from other users on the chat service.

WebAPIBasicAuthenticationDemo

This project presents a Visual Studio solution including a simple demo ASP.Net Web API Basic Authentication Service Application and a “Tester” Client (Windows Form Application) that allows the user to test the Web API with CRUD operations (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) that service design requires authentication (except the Get). In addition to demonstrating standard CRUD capabilities, the Web API service implements a .Net Memory Cache (MemoryCache) and custom username and password validator. Passwords are stored securely using Password-Based Key Derivation Function PBKD cryptology. The client “tester” windows form application is not intended as a UX/UI demo but used to test and verify that the backend authentication service allows the user to register with a username and password and verify the Web API CRUD functions based on basic authentication scheme. Lastly, the project is shown in the demo section with a video and screen captures. Note: Every Web API Authentication service should use secure transport. For brevity, this demo project does not implement or discuss the complicated detail nature of SSL/TLS.

This project presents a WCF Stock Service Library (StockServiceLib) that mimics a stock exchange. The service is implemented as a “singleton” and maintains persistent data between client calls and can handle multiple client sessions. The service is hosted via a console application (StockServiceHost). The client and service participate in a bi-directional/callback relationship. The client (StockClient) uses the ChannelFactory pattern as opposed to “Add Service Reference” with SVCUTIL. The client and service share a common assembly (SharedLib) that contains the key contract and data model information. Furthermore, a Utilities project is used by the client console application to facilitate user data entry and the complicated details of building and managing the WCF ChannelFactory connection implementation. The ProxyGen class inside the Utilities project abstracts the details of implementing and managing a generic ChannelFactory connection to a generic service for a client. Note: The Utilities project library was included as base code for my lab project to facilitate speedy completion; we were not expected to code this Utilities project ourselves due to complexity and time constraints. The remaining projects in the solution (SharedLib, StockClient, StockServiceHost, and StockServiceLib), I completed individually per requirements for the lab project.

My Web API Demo: This is a simple ASP.NET Web API that also demonstrates a RESTful api. It will calculate and return lucky lottery numbers based on either a default (api/values/) or custom HTTP Get Request (example: values?name=Kathleen&age=36). A RESTful API is an application program interface (API) that uses HTTP requests to GET, PUT, POST and DELETE data. A web API is an application programming interface (API) for either a web server or a web browser. ASP.NET Web API is a framework that makes it easy to build HTTP services that reach a broad range of clients, including browsers and mobile devices. ASP.NET Web API is an ideal platform for building RESTful applications on the .NET Framework.

Azure-EventGrid-Publisher-Subscriber-Azure-Functions-Demo

In this project, we will create an Event Grid Topic in Azure for a publish-subscribe demo. Our subscriber will be an Azure function that is triggered by an event published to the Event Grid Topic. We will create the Azure function app, subscribe to our Event Grid Topic, and then demo it in action. We will use Postman to set up a POST request to our Event Grid Topic public endpoint that has authentication, version parameter, and the correct JSON body format. After we send the request, we will take a look in the Azure portal to verify the activity and that our subscriber function received and processed the event.

Azure-Virtual-Machine-Web-App-Demo-Project

This project builds an app called "Neighborly". Neighborly is a Python Flask-powered web application that allows neighbors to post advertisements for services and products they can offer. The Neighborly project is comprised of a front-end application that is built with the Python Flask micro framework. The application allows the user to view, create, edit, and delete the community advertisements. The application makes direct requests to the back-end API endpoints. These are endpoints that we will also build for the server-side of the application. Let's deploy an app called Neighborly, allowing neighbors to post advertisements for services and products they can offer. The app will use a blend of Cosmos DB, Azure Functions, Kubernetes, Event Hub, Event Grid Topic, and more.
