PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS

- Designed and developed of a gateway product between OSI/X.400 
  and SMTP Sendmail. This product will be marketed by both IBM 
  and Bull for their respective customer base. This product 
  requires an extensive knowledge of both the OSI/X.400 and 
  SMTP/Sendmail systems.  It will be using the 1988 X/Open API 
  for the object management of ASN.1 data elements. 

- Completed system-level design for the incorporation of new 
  devices into a network management product for a major computer 
  manufacturer.  This effort required knowledge of the existing 
  network management architecture and software.  This knowledge 
  had to be augmented by information about the additional 
  devices. 

- Development of an SNMP-conformant management interface to 
  NetView.  Though this will not be offered as an full product, 
  the testbed product illustrated that an effective, efficient 
  management interface could be created and that it could be made 
  extensible for new objects not originally supported. 

- Development of a Postscript tool for host-based document 
  production output.  This output was downloaded to a distributed 
  network of PCs, processed through additional tools (many of 
  which I designed and/or developed), and finally output to HP 
  printers with Postscript drivers. 

- Assisted in the creation of a multi-vendor communications 
  implementation.  This work included UNIX, OS/2, DOS, VM, and 
  MVS hosts.  The implementation included the use of shared 
  facilities. 

- Created numerous user tools in a VM/CMS environment that 
  includes the use of a Banyan local area network.  These tools 
  ranged from simple utilities to sophisticated publication 

- Managed a unit that provided technical expertise to complex 
  information management tools. projects for clients throughout 
  the world.  The information that was managed included: 

   -  written publications
   -  online, hypertext books
   -  computer-based training
   -  computer animation
   -  imaging.

- Manager and product architect for a project for a major 
  computer manufacturer to create a generic interface product 
  between intelligent work stations operating through 
  a LU 6.2 communication protocol and 3270 host-based 
  applications.  This product also included the ability to 
  determine the destination of a request.  This product could 
  receive requests, make routing decisions, forward the request 
  to a 3270 application, and return the request. 

- Design of an OSI-compliant network.  Though the OSI 
  architecture was still being developed, the existing base was 
  used to create a multi-nodal, interrelated network of both IBM 
  and non-IBM systems. 

- Project leader on a project to manage and reconfigure a 
  regional network for the largest bank in the southwest.  
  Responsibilities included the financial analysis, vendor 
  selection, technical design, and implementation of the network, 
  while restricting the impact upon the existing network.    

- Managed the network configuration and installation of a new 
  host processor and its associated software, and the project 
  team consisting of 13 people. 

- Managed the creation of a highly automated network control 
  system.  Developed a system that would recognize network 
  component failures and attempt recovery.  If the recovery was 
  successful, a message was forwarded to the network control 
  personnel of the failure and its recovery.  If the failure 
  could not be recovered, an attempt at reconfiguration was made.  
  Again, notification was sent to the network control personnel 
  to allow the creation of trend reports. 

- Other responsibilities included system design, the installation 
  of hardware and software on minicomputers, and the mainframe, 
  and minicomputer programming. 

- Designed a system to allow multiple companies to share one CICS 
  system utilizing common transaction codes, but having unique 
  operators, destination control points, files, and programs.  
  This system required modification of CICS terminal control, 
  program control, destination control, and file control.
