Hi, I am Sayak. I build fast web apps, explore distributed systems, and research resilient IoT architectures.

I'm an M.Tech student in Computer Science at Techno Main Salt Lake, Kolkata (CGPA 8.00 / 10), after graduating with distinction in B.Tech CSE from MAKAUT (9.13 DGPA). Day to day, I work across the full stack with React, Node.js, and TypeScript, solve algorithmic challenges in Java, and research ways to help sensor networks automatically self-heal when hardware readings go haywire.

Real-world IoT sensor networks frequently drift, glitch, or drop noisy readings. For my Master's thesis, I developed the Context-Aware Adaptive Error Handling Framework (CAAEHF) to catch anomalies in real time using context modeling and residual analysis, triggering automated recovery routines before corrupted data cascades to downstream applications.

Meta Analysis: Association Between Air Pollution & Risk of Pulmonary Diseases 2023 – 2024 · B.Tech Capstone
Techno International Batanagar (MAKAUT) · Epidemiological Analytics · Meta-Regression · Environmental Informatics

Investigated the quantifiable health impact of ambient particulate matter (PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and SO2) on chronic respiratory illnesses like COPD and asthma. Built automated data-cleaning pipelines and fitted random-effects meta-regression models across multi-regional clinical records to evaluate heterogeneity and uncover high-risk exposure thresholds.

Nation Builder Concept In Progress

A deep strategy simulation exploring the complex, often messy realities of governing a modern nation. You balance the national budget, enact landmark civil policies, manage geopolitical relationships, and make high-stakes decisions when unexpected crises threaten national stability.

🏛️ Laws & Governance
Draft and vote on policies across civil liberties, public healthcare, and labor rights. Every executive decree reshapes public approval and faction loyalty.
📈 Economics & Trade
Set corporate tax brackets, guide central bank interest targets, manage strategic reserves, and balance foreign trade without sparking inflation.
🌐 Diplomacy & Defense
Negotiate bilateral trade treaties, navigate embargoes, form mutual defense pacts, or defuse volatile border disputes.
⚡ Dynamic Crisis Engine
React to unpredictable shocks — market crashes, resource shortages, labor strikes, and geopolitical flashpoints that test your contingency plans.
