RELEVANT EXPERIENCE

Leadership Skills

TNT (The NeWS Toolkit) Project Lead

OpenWindows 4/93 (for Solaris 2.2) & 4/94 (for Solaris 2.4) Project Lead

Operating Systems Programming

Designed and implemented a single-user multi-processing multi-windowing operating system (SOLOS), implementation

language compiler (Concurrent Pascal), source file editor, various system tools, and user interface for a dual MC68010 based

programmer s workstation aimed at the IBM mainframe COBOL environment. The byte-code interpreter and device drivers

were written in 68010 assembly language; all other components were byte-compiled to run on the virtual machine.

Designed and implemented a portable single-user, single-tasking operating system (AMIX), implementation language compiler

(UCSD Pascal derivative), source file editor and various system tools for the AMI Phoenix microprocessor development

station and other popular development systems (Intel, Motorolla, Tektronix, TI, etc.) The byte-code interpreter and device

drivers were written in assembly language for each platform; all other components were byte-compiled to run on the virtual

machine.

Release Engineering and Confguration Management

Designed and implemented a mechanism to allow a programming team to share a multiple source directory baseline while

developing and maintaining a large project.

Automated a significant portion of the build, packaging, and internal release process for OpenWindows. (Including server,

libraries, and deskset tools.)

Systems Administration and Support Automation

Designed and implemented sybperl scripts to automatically process incoming upgrade and support request email messages.

Designed and implemented a perl script to automatically process mailing list requests (additions, removals, etc.) via e-mail.

Designed, implemented, and maintain a virtual hosting system offering HTTP, FTP, SMTP, IMAP, POP and other services in

secure per-virtual host environments on a single host server.

Set up a FreeBSD based server and OS X Open Directory environment for a mixed Windows XP and OS X office.

Designed, implemented, and maintained a virtual hosting environment based on FreeBSD jails.

Real-time Programming

Designed and implemented the real-time control and communications software for a complex multi-processor imbedded

application. The user interface and pseudo-realtime portion runs under SunOS and communicates with the real-time portion

primarily via RPC.

Designed and implemented various process control applications in LabVIEW.

Window System Programming

TNT (The NeWS Toolkit) Technical Lead

Designed and implemented NeWS X11 Selection and Drag-and-Drop interoperability mechanism

Designed and implemented NeWS/TNT access to X defaults database

Designed and participated in the implementation of a large TNT based toolkit to be used by an embedded real-time

application.

Converted freely redistributable SunView programs to Xview.

Designed and implemented the SunView interface to a CAE package originally written for PC-DOS.

Performing enhancements and bug fixes to a C++ application using ViewKit, Motif, and Xt.

Participated in design and implementation of a complex GUI for a semiconductor yield analysis system.

Litigation Support

Performed patent-related search for Prior Art, code reviews, and document preparation.
