Bio

An open source enthusiast and promoter, I am currently working as a Python Developer

I use web technologies to solve real life problems while trying to contribute to make society better.

Being the founding member of Nepal Open Source Klub (NOSK), I believe that professional excellence is equally important as the academic progress. Good education leads to good positions, but it is the skill set that you posses, that takes you to real height in the professional career. I like to call myself a "motivator"and "path navigator" for students who are confuesed about the professional path in their life.

Incorporation of Cryptography Mechanism in a Smartphone File Sharing System Design

Nitesh Rijal
Conference Papers Seventh National Students' Conference on Information Technolgoy, September 2013

Abstract

Modern day technology has become very advanced. Internet has become accessible to almost every corner of theworld. Electronic Mail, commonly known as “email”, has become the primary mode of communication all over the world. Email serves as an integral part of our everyday life. Be it work, or to be in touch with distant family members, it has become the most cheapest means of communication because of its nearly zero cost in terms of money.

The aim of this project is to develop a smartphone app that is able to encrypt any file to be used attachments using an email app and also decrypt it at the receiver's end, so that middle man cannot view them even if they tap the mail in the middle.

Bridging the Information Divide of the Maldives through Library Automation and Digitisation

Aminath Riyaz, Nitesh Rijal, Shiva Ram Shrestha & Fathimath Nashfa
Journal Paper International Seminar on 'Digital Libraries for Digital Nation', October 2012, Pages 10-30

Abstract

Information divide can be defined as the gap between those who have access to information sources and those who do not have an acceptable level of access. This disparity in access to information is experienced between developed and developing countries, and also within countries in terms of urban and rural areas. This is more prevalent in developing countries given the shortage of local publications, high cost of acquiring information sources, coupled with the low priority of information provision in the face of other pressing economic needs. In some respect, the information divide is more prominent in island nations like the Maldives given the geographic dispersion divided by the ocean.

Mobile IP: Dimensions & Prospects

Nitesh Rijal
Conference Papers Sixth National Students' Conference on Information Technolgoy, September 2009

Abstract

For those new to the concept, Mobile IP simply is an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard communications protocol that is designed to allow mobile device users to move from one network to another while maintaining a permanent IP address.

LINUX TERMINAL SERVER PROJECT (LTSP)

Nitesh Rijal, Pramod Bhandari
Conference Papers Sixth National Students' Conference on Information Technolgoy, September 2009

Abstract

Open Source Software & Free Software

Nitesh Rijal, Shiva Ram Shrestha & Sunil Sharma
Conference Papers Fifth National Students' Conference on Information Technolgoy, September 2013

Abstract

This paper presents the necessities and possibilities of Open Source Software (OSS) and Free Software (FS) as viable alternatives to present situation of expensive, rigid and unauthorized software. The motive of this paper is to create awareness among the user about Open Source Software and encourage using them. For those of you, new to the concept, open source software is that which is open to modification by user, as opposed to the closed source, where you get only the executable file and cannot modify it in any way. Open source programs are ongoing projects; unlike the software company coming out with a final product release. In open source community they listen to user requests, comments and reviews. In short, the development process is a group effort of various people of various places rather than a group of a people in a company in some particular place.

BLUETOOTH TECHNOLOGY: A BOON TO WIRELESS COMMUNICATION

Nitesh Rijal, Gopal Pd. Shah
Conference Papers Fifth National Students' Conference on Information Technolgoy, September 2013

Abstract

Today’s world has been converted into a global village and this is basically because of the development in the field of networking and communication. Wireless communication is growing at the rate of FLASH. And Bluetooth Technology is an example of it. Bluetooth is an open standard for short range digital radio. Bluetooth is considered as wireless PAN technology that offers fast and reliable transmission for both voice and data. Bluetooth devices will eliminate the need for cables and provides a bridge to existing networks and thus it has a great scope in near future. The goal of Bluetooth is to connect desperate devices( PDAs, cell phones, printers, faxes etc.) and allow them to seamlessly work together in a small environment such as an office or home.
