Network Management and Design:

Managed and designed a variety of networks including Windows NT, Novell, 10Net, and others. Management effort included the creation of user accounts, establishment of data transfer procedures, creation of print queues and servers (remote and local), C programming for data conversion between UNIX and DOS platforms, directing and performing network and computer maintenance, and development of backup/crash recovery procedures. Installed and maintained Novell LAN Workplace for DOS using ODI drivers. Protocols used included TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, NETBIOS. Networks designed and supported included Linear (thin and thick coax) and Star (fiber and 10BASE-T) Ethernet topologies. Supported and integrated multi-platform configurations including MACs, UNIX, Windows, Novell (using LAN Workplace for DOS), and DOS. Network tools used included the Network General Network Analyzer.

Software Development:

Developed Drivers written in Visual C/C++ and Assembler. Specialized in mixed language programming for C and Visual Basic, communications, conversion, and control programming using real time techniques. Applications developed include database managers; data converters; network messaging using Int 14 drivers; real time, interrupt driven hardware interfaces; communication servers to interface with common networks (e.g., Novell 3.11, Unix) with specialized equipment such as Test Equipment and Instrumentation; and language libraries.

Application Support:

Provided technical support to companies and government agencies that were involved in implementing MATE. This included: instructing methods for rehosting the MATE Control and Support Software (MCSS) on a 1750A computer, installation techniques used to make the MCSS operational on the VAX environment, advising on good engineering practices prescribed by the MATE Guides.

Test Program Sets:

Wrote C/ATLAS (IEEE 716-1985) Test Program Sets (TPSs) to testing analog and digital circuits using Modular Automatic Test Equipment (MATE). Also wrote tests for spectrum measurements of microwave circuits using Hewlett Packard Basic.

Managerial/Cost Accounting Experience:

Provided administrative and managerial support to industry and government under the MATE/Industry Technology (MITE) Program. This activity involved: cost accounting, development of government briefing material, liaison with industry/government, tracking the status of new accounts, coordinating Memorandums of Agreements (MOAs) between industry and government, participating in technical meetings, and generating monthly activity reports as required by contract.

Electronic Warfare:

Three-plus years of hands-on experience with Electronic Warfare Systems. Trouble-shot, calibrated, and repaired programmable Early Warning Receivers and Repeater/Noise Jammers using manual and automated techniques.
