School of Health and Human Services and Department of Mathematics and Natural Sciences.
Experience in Science and Programming
Cyanna Education Services Sept 2014 – Sept 2015
Writing lectures in numerical analysis, recursion and data structures.
Senior Operations Research Analyst
Frontier Technology, Inc. Washington, DC November 2006 – June 2007
Statistics and optimization of operations for the Head Quarter US Air Force. Factor analysis was applied to process input data as well as linear and polynomial regression and other statistical methods. The following tools were used: Statistica, Mathematica. I had a Secret clearance.
Mathematician
Technical Mechanic & Electronic Co, Los Angeles, CA May 2001 – May 2014
Part-time. Numerical methods and programming for solving differential equation in partial derivative using Mathematica and C++.
Senior Computing Analyst
California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA November 1999 -May 2000
Developed a part of a Science operation System for the Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF) mission. Duties included: designing, developing and testing software systems; providing support in design and development of software systems to reduce raw data in the final product. Used of the Unix-Sun Solaris workstation, Mathematica, C++, FORTRAN. I have developed a new statistical procedure for cleansing the data and separating nonlinear intervals in the data set in the sensor calibration problem. I have also used robust regression for the same problem.
Programmer
Epicenter Software, Pasadena, CA November 1997 - January 1999
Developed statistical project using languages C, Visual C++, FORTRAN in the Microsoft Developer Studio V.4.0, zApp and Roguewave libraries. I have designed a Graphical User Interface for statistical applications which compares different groups of medical patients. In that project I created Help files for Ms Windows-95 and the zApp library. I used the Mathematical and Statistical System "GAUSS".
Programmer and Mathematician
Middle-Asia Institute of Irrigation, Tashkent, Uzbekistan 1983 -1994
Responsible for processing the geophysical data, statistics, mathematics, computation and programming on a configuration of DEC and IBM mainframes, along with IBM PC's operating under PC-DOS, Windows 3.xx, Unix (DEC) and MVS operating systems. I developed a system for the processing and planning of water distribution, forecasting time-series. I designed complex statistically based programming systems using programming languages: C++, FoxPro, dBase, Modula-2, Pascal, FORTRAN, PL-1, Statgraph, Lotus 1-2-3 and Quattro-Pro spreadsheets. I was also responsible for leading the development of the project for a database describing the irrigation of every cotton field and its condition in the Uzbek Republic. I used C++ and FORTRAN programming for solving complex mathematical problems in hydrodynamics and geophysics problems. FoxPro was used for creating the database for the irrigation system in the Uzbek republic.
Programmer and Mathematician
Institute of Gas and Oil Geology/Geophysical Department, Tashkent, Uzbekistan 1963-1977
In charge of the computational geophysics, mathematical processing of gravimetric, magnetic and electrical sounding data, interpretation of seismic sounding data, forecasting time-series. I used programming language FORTRAN. I did statistical processing of medical, sociometric and anthropometric data. The statistical data was obtained as a result of the greatest investigation of the health status of the population in the history of Soviet Union and which contained 120 000 records with 58 parameters in each. The system ran under an IBM mainframe and was programmed using languages: PL/1.
Teaching experience
I have taught in many colleges and universities of three countrues: former Soviet Union, USA and Saudy Arabia.
Publications
Forty papers in mathematics of computation, mathematical processing of geophysical data, statistics applied to processing of sociometrical, demographic and geological data, manuals for students.
