Profile
Charles Allen developed validation software for Advanced Micro Devices in their systems group. He then worked at Purdue University helping develop automated simulation, characterization, and analysis systems for solar cells and hydrogen energy. After Purdue he helped Arizona State University prevent data loss of over a decade of research by implementing research collaboration and data storage with enhanced redundancy. Additionally he implemented project collaboration software using MS Project. He also continued to develop and administer systems for multi-user simulation and data analysis. At Zipton Labs he developed and deployed ITAR-compliant GroupWise/Vibe collaboration systems on an AWS backend, and continued developing automated simulation and data analysis systems. Recently, he has been investigating Windows Server 2008r2 and Server 2012 Hyper-V VDI deployments with RemoteFX for viability in dynamic, real-time, multi-tenant 3D-rendering-capable clouds.
