PROFILE

Joseph Amirtharaj

Worked on the cmu-db/bustub repository to enhance tombstone handling within the BPlusTree data structure, focusing on improving the reliability of tombstone coalescing. Introduced a NumTombs template parameter to the LeafPage type alias, enabling more robust management of tombstones and reducing the risk of index inconsistencies in production environments. Updated the TombstoneCoalesceTest to minimize reliance on page IDs and to better verify index correctness, thereby strengthening test reliability. Applied minor formatting changes to improve code readability and maintainability. Utilized C++ with an emphasis on algorithm design, data structures, and unit testing throughout the development process.

February 2026 — cmu-db/bustub: Hardened tombstone handling in BPlusTree and improved test reliability around tombstone coalescing. Delivered a TombstoneCoalescing and BPlusTree LeafPage Tombstone Enhancement by introducing a NumTombs template parameter in the LeafPage type alias, enabling robust tombstone management. Updated TombstoneCoalesceTest to depend less on page IDs and to verify index correctness, reinforcing correctness of indexing under tombstone coalescing. Minor formatting adjustments were applied to improve code readability and maintainability. These changes reduce risk of tombstone-related index inconsistencies and contribute to more reliable data structures in production.
