Abstract Altruista Health provides care management software that
drives significant improvements in cost savings and health outcomes for all
populations. During my internship period I learned new programming language
C#, learned Etl tool like Talend and got familiar
working with MongoDB. And all this quick learning wouldn't
be possible without the help from my colleagues at Altruista
Health, my advisor Prof. Arnold and last but not the least the esteem
education I gained from UWB CSSE program. The purpose of the projects I did was, firstly to
improve the management of client-based data into the company's embedded
system. Secondly, decrease the employee workload during production hours and
avoid data loads. The first project I did was "Field Validation".
The problem provided for this project was how to tackle incorrect client
information when entered in pipe delimited file. And the solution to this
problem is by first checking what are the mandatory fields that must be
filled by the client and then check if those fields are entered correctly as
required system. Data load is a common especially during the time of product
deployment. Basically, monitoring the production jobs and getting regular
updates is a good way to handle it. That is what I did in my second project "Task
Manager". The program monitors specific tasks which are configurable,
running in the background and sends the email updates showing jobs that are
running with their location. The emails are sent during specific time, set as
per required by the employee. Working in a healthcare sector means managing
large dataset of customer files/information and sometimes it becomes tough to
manage all that data. The third project "File Compression" made
managing clients information easy by compressing specific files with datetime
stamp on it and making report of the files that were managed. "System
Monitor" being my last project dealt with a problem of unknown file
access or changing activities. Sometimes other employees
access, edit and update clients' files and it can make jobs of other
employees little tough. My program helped keep track of configurable files
and notifying when the file was last modified, renamed or when a new file was
created. So, when in production, this program also monitors production
activity. At the end of this internship, I grew overall as a
coder, adapted to new technologies and communicated with various departments
and learned from them too. |
