EMPLOYMENT EXPERIENCEMassachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA: 3/90 to present
Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department:
Director of Departmental Computing
Responsible for the department's use of computing to support academic
and administrative needs. Supervising the Education Computing Facility (ECF)
technical staff that supports over 400 networked workstations, PC's
and Macintoshes. Designed and coordinated the construction of 3 large
computer clusters for student use. Group responsibilities include
support of educational software, licensing of third party software,
hardware maintenance support, network support, user training, long
range planning, World Wide Web development, etc.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA: 12/85 to 3/90
Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department: Project Manager
Responsible for the deployment and support of the Department's 200
Athena workstations and printers. Assisted in various faculty
initiatives to develop educational software. Developed the Courseware
Development System and used it for creating applications in the area
of applied probability and ordinary differential equations. Software
is written in C++, C and SCHEME under UNIX/X11 and runs on a
VaxStations, IBM PC/RTs, DECstations, and Sun SPARCstations.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA: 9/84 to 10/85
Project Athena: Course Consultant, Task Force Coordinator
Assisted MIT faculty incorporating computer-based educational
materials into their courses. Coordinated initial allocation and
deployment of 160 networked Athena AT workstations. Supervised Athena
student programmers providing support for faculty educational software
development using the workstation model. Coordinated a process for
term by term allocation of computer resources among development
projects and courses in Athena's distributed environment. Project
currently supports a network of Vax 11/750's, MicroVax II's provided
by DEC, and RT/PC's and PC/AT's provided by IBM.
The Saddlebrook Corporation, Cambridge, MA: 5/82 to 12/82
Project Manager
Responsible for the design of an interactive Marketing Information
System to be included with a Front Office computer system developed
for use by thrift institutions in the USA. Project based on VAX
11/780's using VMS.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA: 10/78 to 1/81
Energy Laboratory: Sponsored Research Staff
Responsible for the development of electric utility capacity planning
methodologies. Primary assignment to the "Electric Generation
Expansion Analysis System" (EGEAS) Project. Responsibilities included
project planning, user needs assessment, methodology development,
database design, and research programming coordination. My role also
required significant travel to utilities, agencies and research
organizations across the country and involved many design
presentations to both large and small groups. Project based on IBM 370
and 3033 using VP/CMS and TSO respectively.
Stone & Webster Engineering Corp., Boston, MA: 9/76 to 1/78
Electrical Division: Engineer
Responsible for the development of computer models for electric
utility system planners. My role involved contract negotiations,
preparation for advisory board reviews, and coordination of model
development efforts.
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA: 6/75 to 8/76
Energy Laboratory: Programmer / Analyst
Assigned to an Energy Lab project in which an electric generation
expansion model that incorporated environmental constraints was
revised and tested.
State Street Bank & Trust Co., Boston, MA: 1/73 to 1/75
Management Sciences: Programmer
Responsible for maintenance of an interactive managerial accounting
system for use by the company's Computer Services Division.
CONSULTING EXPERIENCEQueues Enforth Development, Inc., Cambridge, MA: 11/89 to 11/94
Developed and implemented algorithms for use in a system that infers
queueing statistics from service time information.
U.S. Windpower, Inc., Burlington, MA: 12/82 to 5/84
Developed specifications for a Windplant Economic Model to be used in
evaluating the costs and benefits of alternative windplant proposals.
Suggested organizational changes required to accommodate the growing
role of computer applications development within the company. Assisted
in development of standards for microcomputer purchases and in the
selection of a DBMS.
Citibank, N.A., Sao Paulo, Brazil; 6/81 to 9/81
Retained to design a planning methodology tailored to management of
distributed development and maintenance. Developed general
specifications for a project planning and control package to assist
managers on the world, regional, and country levels, with built-in
interfaces to improve coordination.
Science Applications, Inc., McLean, Va.; 8/78 to 10/78
Designed a modeling approach for evaluating the impact of solar
generating technologies on electric utilities. Authored sections of a
proposal to DOE regarding use of this modeling approach as part of a
technology assessment of solar energy in the South Central U.S.A. (SAI
was awarded the $1m project).
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA: 3/78 to 7/78
Retained by the Energy Laboratory to evaluate a decomposition
optimization technique for modeling electric utility capacity
expansion to see if the problem formulation could include distributed
and centralized Photovoltaic generation within the utility grid. Also
assisted with the development of the computer code to test the
technique, using FORTRAN under VP/CMS on an IBM 370.
Massachusetts Energy Facilities Siting Council, Boston, MA: 1/78 to 5/78
As an associate with Clark-McGlennon Associates, Inc., Boston, Ma. I
consulted for the MEFSC on a project entitled "An Integrated Approach
to Regulated Energy Facility Siting". Worked closely with the MEFSC
staff to establish realistic user needs. Coordinated a survey of
existing models and databases relevant to siting issues. Designed a
methodology that integrated demand forecasting, supply planning,
siting, and environmental impact modeling capabilities.
EDUCATIONMassachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA: 2/81 to 6/81
Enrolled in the Technology and Policy Program program within the
Mechanical Engineering Department. DOE funding cuts eliminated
financial support in the second term. Withdrew with option to return.
