- Project Management: Defined and assigned tasks, managed resource constraints, and tracked progress to schedule for a multi-platform graphics driver validation project.
- Designed and developed tests for testing graphics drivers on Linux and Windows. Lead the team by developing test code that uses XML to abstract the test data from the test implementation. This reduces the requirement to re-compile tests and aids in rapid test development, and automation.
- Using SOAP, and COM interface into a TLA711 Tektronix Logic Analyzer I developed a remote interface to COM API that provides the capability to capture static images over the network from an RGBA port. This facilitates testing of overlay and modes on a port that can't be displayed in a traditional manner.
- Created pivot reporting mechanism to import LDRA code coverage reports into an OLAP CUBE database for rapid reporting on what tests exercise specific areas of code.
- Created automated test suite for AC97 audio specification that tests the driver front end and then verifies the register settings match what was set using the application interface to the driver.
- Developed C library for conversion between YUV and RGB pixel formats.

- Created OCT with a team of developers, OCT is Intel's Open Control Technology for centralizing and simplifying the management of systems in a data center.
- Developed a security API, model and implementation for securing objects stored in a CIMOM (Common Information Model Object Manager).
- Developed an OCT driver to integrate a CLIPS based JESS rules engine into OCT to provide automation of common tasks. The automation can be configured to automatically provision an operating system, install software packages, and content in a load balanced environment when load reaches a certain level, or a device goes offline.
- Completed the driver for integrating the rules engine into OCT ahead of schedule. This allowed me to put together a memory based mini Linux operating system for PXE booting. The mini Linux OS provided the capability of provisioning the new system with an OS, as well as provide status of the available device into the OCT framework. There is a patent pending for this technology.
- Developed a Java interface for creation of CLIPS rules, the interface converts the GUI based rule definitions into CLIPS.
- Developed a generic object based data store and remoting API to facilitate rapid GUI and Driver development for the OCT Rules Engine.
- Designed and developed a HTTP based protocol for dynamic status in a web application. This provided AJAX capability prior to its availability. There is a patent pending for this technology.

- Using C++ and OOP techniques, designed and developed a custom server to access legacy data located on TN3270 screens. The same code base runs on Solaris, AIX, Linux, and NT. It uses non-blocking or blocking file access, runs in one to many threads, and can handle up to 3,000 concurrent active connections. The code is highly portable, requiring only twenty base classes to port to any operating system. The server has a small footprint, and thus it is a candidate for router operating systems. Met the challenge of the project time constraints, the initial code was released in six weeks. The server has a sockets-based RPC interface that allows easy creation of applications in JAVA, VB, and Unix shell environments.
- Using Visual C++, and ASP VB-Script, created a MTS COM object, and demonstration application to present capability of PROVISTA's server.
- Development of real time application and user interface for laser eye correction at Sunrise Technologies developing the FDA approved Sunrise Hyperion LTK System.
- Led development team at PG&E in the development of a custom web server to combine data from 3270 and ODBC data streams. During the development process I was key in bringing fresh ideas to management that made the project a success. The multi-threaded server was written from scratch using Visual C++. The data was formatted and presented to internal users in HTML forms for easy update of scattered mainframe information.
- Using Visual Basic with SQL server, created a large SQL server database, and reporting tools for Budget Analysts at Pacific Bell.
- Worked with a team to develop a system that enabled Central Office engineers to administer and engineer capacity expansion within the Public Services Telecom Network.
