% Writing

I don't often write stuff. Certainly not enough to warrant a blog. But
sometimes I do feel the need to write down my thoughts. The results of those
rare occasions are published on this page.

## Articles That May As Well Be Considered Blog Posts

## Longer Reports

`2014-06-10` - [Biased Random Periodic Switching in Direct Connect](/download/doc/brpsdc.pdf) (PDF)
:   My masters thesis.

`2013-04-05` - [Peer Selection in Direct Connect](/download/doc/psdc.pdf) (PDF)
:   The rather long-ish literature study that precluded my masters thesis.

`2010-06-02` - [Design and implementation of a compressed linked list library](https://dev.yorhel.nl/download/doc/compll.pdf) (PDF)
:   The report for the final project of my professional (HBO) bachelor of
    Electrical Engineering. I was very liberal with some terminology in this
    report. For example, "linked lists" aren't what you think they are, and I
    didn't even use the term "locality of reference" where I really should
    have. It was also written for an audience with little knowledge on the
    subject, so I elaborated on a lot of things that should be obvious for most
    people in the field. Then there is a lot of uninteresting overhead about
    the project itself, which just happened to be mandatory for this report.
    Nonetheless, if you can ignore these faults it's not such a bad read, if I
    may say so myself. :-)
