Work Experience Summary:
World-class expert in use of relational technology to solve graph problems. Extensive experience in solving large complex IT problems in healthcare, telecommunications, manufacturing, project management, process management, product management, personnel management, education, and computer-aided engineering. Use of NLP to ontologically classify underlying structured and unstructured data into millions of categories. World leader in transitive closure algorithms to provide powerful navigation and knowledge inference capabilities on these ontologies in relational databases, enabling powerful data mining, statistical analysis, and Google-like query capability. These technology achievements enabled a potential 10,000x reduction in R&D. Refer to www.Divine-Inspirations.com.

Work Experience Details:
Divine Inspirations Founder & CEO 2013-present
Healthcare IT: Developed Google-Rx that enables Google-like query capability on structured data. This is something search engines like Google are not capable of doing today. For example, if you wanted to ask “how many people in Illinois have an autoimmune disease”, a Google query would return the desired result only if someone had done the necessary analytics and published a document containing those results. The capability I developed provides the ability to perform real time computations.

Park Street Solutions Co-Founder & Chief Data Scientist 2004 – 2013
Healthcare IT: Inventor of Park Street’s Knowledge representation foundation. This foundation, based upon the TCSQL technology invented at Kindred-Connections, enabled the use of large government ontologies like UMLS to ontologically categorize EMR data, consequently reducing the complexity of EMR data from tens of thousands of database tables down to tens of tables. Developed star schema snowflake data warehouse driven by this ontological classification of facts. Use of TCSQL’s transitive closure enabled powerful and sophisticated subsumption, inference, polymorphic, and path queries that drove Park Street’s clinical query, business intelligence, and analytics capabilities. Developing Park Street Solutions entailed extensive use of SQL Server, ASP.Net, VB.Net, and AJAX technologies.
Lewis University Adjunct Professor 2004 – 2013
Teaching: Taught accelerated math and computer science courses.
Kindred-Connections Founder 2002 – 2004
Knowledge Management Technology: Inventor of TCSQL. This relational database technology features incremental maintenance of the transitive closure for directed acyclic and cyclic graphs. A sophisticated modeling layer uses the transitive closure to implement a soft schema, providing relational support for object oriented programming (OOP) concepts such as classes, objects, inheritance, and polymorphism. This foundation enables powerful subsumption, inference, polymorphic, and path queries that drive sophisticated navigation and analytics capabilities over complex ontological structures. The ability to directly support OOP using relational technology has been the holy grail of the relational database industry. TCSQL removes the need for object-relational mapping (ORM) technologies such as Hibernate and removes the need for competing technologies such as NoSQL and graph databases. Use of TCSQL has demonstrated a 100x reduction in software maintenance and 1000x reduction in data store complexity.
Personnel, Process, Project, Product, Portfolio, Program Management System: Developed a system that supports personnel, process, project, product, portfolio, and program management. System utilized DHTML, JavaScript, VB6.0, COM+, IIS, and RDS and featured the automated generation of task network project plans from high-level process descriptions using TCSQL technology.
Riveon Technologies Senior Software Architect 2000 – 2002
Data Warehouse Tools: Used VB6.0, JavaScript, VBScript, ASP, RDS, COM+, IIS, and SQL Server 2000 to develop a web interface to an ETL system and an email event notification system. The ETL system extracted enterprise data from ERP systems into a data warehouse and provided subsequent web query capability.
Bell Labs Distinguished Member of Technical Staff 1982 – 2000
Relational Database Algorithms: Developed graph algorithms that resulted in 5 patents. Received “Database technology of the year” award at Computer Associate’s CA-World conference. Article published in the Bell Labs Technical Journal.
Process/Project Management System: Lead architect of process/project management system used to track the development of multiple large telecommunications projects. This system used Unix, C and Ingres (pre PostgreSQL) database technologies.
Reporting Architecture: Designed client/server database reporting architecture that supported subscription to reports. System produced SGML, HTML, Postscript, and ASCII reports launched automatically from a WEB browser.
Testing Environment: Developed an automated regression testing system using C and Shell. System algorithmically determined appropriate feature test sets. Responsible for coordinating all system testing activities for my organization.
Language Translator: Co-developed/maintained a large C++ application that mapped a high-level declarative programming language into C modules that maintained data integrity of a large relational telecommunications database.
Database Language And Interpreter: Designed a declarative/procedural CAE/CAD database programming language and implemented a corresponding language interpreter written in C. The programming language featured the ability to store SQL-like query results into data structures and to perform arithmetic, relational, and boolean operations on these data structures procedurally through sequential, branch, and loop language constructs. Language featured the support of a collection of operators whose syntax and semantics were user-modifiable. Interpreter also featured dynamic loading of user-definable operators, support of typeless operands, automated memory management and string manipulation, and support of associative arrays. Interpreter implemented operations as a stack architecture.
Constraint-Driven Electronic Design: Led team in designing the next-generation CAE/CAD system for the entire laboratory. Designed and developed a CAE/CAD electronic circuit design paradigm that allowed a designer to define constraints on design tasks using a high-level declarative/procedural database programming language (described above). The framework provided a foundation for support of design tradeoff analysis.
Circuit Pack Placement: Developed Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) circuit pack placement and discrete wire prototyping tools in C. Tools featured interactive and automated graphical placement of circuit devices onto circuit packs through the implementation of a bounding rectangle algorithm that minimized wiring length of net connections.
Software To Educate People Director of Research 1990 – 1993
Computer-Based Training: Inventor of a computer based authoring paradigm that featured the automated construction of electronic books from a high-level BNF-grammar instructional strategy and table of contents descriptions. Paradigm featured distributed knowledge content reusable in multiple contexts. Invited speaker at CBT conference at U. of Utah. Electronic books featured interactive text, graphics, audio, video, and simulation multimedia objects. Designed and implemented runtime multimedia object placement algorithms for electronic books (before internet browsers existed). Designed runtime system features written in platform-independent GUI.
University of Waterloo Graduate Student
VLSI Design: Co-designed 2 custom VLSI chips that performed the legal-move-generation function of a chess program. Modeled legal moves as a finite automata and generated logic equations as input to a PLA generator.
Functional Programming Language: Developed a functional programming language written in Prolog that mapped expressions containing bound variables into finite sequences of combinator constants.
