My Horse Friends - Apex Virtual Entertainment

My Horse Friends is, as Apex brands it, the world's most beautiful game. It is a horse game made for PC and is free to download. You can play a small part of the game in the free version of the game and users can then by extra parts of the game to unlock new stories, mini games and quests.

During the game production I got to develop skills in using acceptance tests, unit tests, Nant, CruiseControl, Perforce and Google App Engine. The game was developed using Unity and C#.

BCFinder - IMM, Technical University of Copenhagen

BCFinder is an application which has been developed in cooperation with researchers from the Information and Mathematical Modelling (IMM) department at the Technical University of Denmark. The program is implemented in Java and make use other open-source Java packages such as for example JUNG.

The purpose of the program is visualise communities with bipartite networks. I wont describe the definition of these communities here but a short description of them is that all members of a community are closely related to some degree depending on what the threshold (which will neither be described here) is on the community.

The program has been well received by many other researchers and a paper (with me credited) on this community idea and program will soon be published. Some researchers have even started using it and will therefore will the program be cited in their coming papers.
