SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER - SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE UPGRADES TO EXISTING

SYSTEM IN C/C++/JAVA/JAVASCRIPT/HTML ON SUN BLADE SOLARIS 10 UNIX.

Development lead to provide additional flexibility to existing system.

Providing documentation to meet PDR/CDR requirements. Lead software

engineer for PDR/CDR meetings with customer.

Systems Engineering work included development on PDR and CDR presentations.

Detailed design included risk assessment, test requirements, design

overview... In order to provide design, research of current system C and

scheme code was required. Also background of prior related change requests

from Clearquest were investigated. Writing of System Requirement Spec and

System Design Document (SRS/SDD) showing design and changes to database

tables was also performed.

Recent software development has been in JAVA 1.6.0_14 on a SUN UNIX system

using NetBeans 6.5.1. This application involved writing a JAVA GUI

application to interface with the user. This application involves

customization of jtables and tabbed dialogs. These tables are populated

through sql interface with an oracle database table. Interface allows for

deletions, additions and edits of current records. Tables and lists are

dynamically sized and built based on either database tables or ASCII lists.

In another application, incorportated JavaHelp and JavaDoc. Also added web

start capability. Provided web interface with a clickable monthly calendar

that brings up dynamically created html and image (.png) files. Other java

methods used included jfreechart and production of charts and graphs.

SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER 4 - SOFTWARE SUPPORT FOR INTERACTIVE ELECTRONIC

TRAINING MANUAL (IETM) GUIDE ON JIMIS PROJECT.

Software support for JIMIS (IETM guide). Coding in Java, using netbeans.

Contact Kathy Briscoe @ Northrop Grumman for reference.

Senior Software Engineer 3 - Systems Requirements on ASU (Joint STARS

upgrade) & C/C++ software development on IRAD project.

Systems support for Joint STARS Attack Support Upgrade (ASU) program to add

additional functionality and messages. Software IRAD development using MS

Visual Studio 6.0 and COTS product Digital Fountain. Contact Glen Deal

@Northrop Grumman for reference.

Systems Engineering work on the ASU program involved requirements

definitions based on the latest Mil-Std 6016 document. Involved working

with other engineers to create a system model, Product Requirements

Specifications (PRS) documents, Proposed Specification Changes (PSC)

document as well as mapping shall requirements from the Technical

Requirements Document (TRD) down to the other documents. Involved with the

requirements for the J6.0 (intelligence information), J15.0 (threat

warning) and J3.7 (electronic warfare product information) datalink

messages as well as requirement/system changes to other messages. This also

required keeping an Access database updated with mappings. Interfacing with

this Access database via the object model, methods, and properties in a

Visual Basic environment. Wrote embedded SQL code in VBA. Peer reviews and

CCB reviews attended as required. Proficiency required to learn and use the

enhanced Data Link Platform Implementation (eDLPI) a government supplied

tool that is part of the iSMART system. This tool is used to maintain Link

16 information down to the field level for various military platforms and

baselines.

Researched use of Digital Fountain library functionality in eliminating

lost data caused by dropped IP packets across a network. Software was

written to perform Forward Error Correction (FEC) of network IP packets

using the Digital Fountain (DF) library of products. 'C' code written using

Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 on Windows XP platform to accept IP packets,

encode packets using DF APIs and then send the encoded UDP packets. A

second program was written to accept the encoded packets, decode them using

DF functions and verify that all data was received without loss.
