                           DWIGHT D. CHRISTENSEN
                  828 Hogan Place Paso Robles, CA 93446
             Home: (805) 239-4612      Office: (408) 385-2811 

EDUCATION
B.S. Electronic Engineering; California Polytechnic University, San Luis
Obispo.

EXPERIENCE SUMMARY
Mr. Christensen has over 8 years experience in digital circuit design,
project management and writing software. He is familiar with UNIX and DOS,
and has programming experience in a variety of assembly languages as well
as several high-level languages, such as C. His programming and hardware
design experience has been focused on real-time microprocessor-based
systems.

WORK EXPERIENCE

June 1991 - Present                          CSC, SSL
Sr. Instrumentation Dev. Engineer            Fort Hunter Liggett, CA

Mr. Christensen has identified, designed, and implemented various
improvements for different instrumentation packages. This includes design
of memory loss error detection routines, research and documentation of
necessary hardware modifications for a microprocessor based portable unit
for real-time data collection, processing and analysis. He also developed
and managed a training program for new microprocessor engineers. He
authored an Operations and Maintenance Manual for an instrumentation
package and created a Firmware Acceptance Procedure.

October 1990 - June 1991                     CSC, SSL
Digital Systems Engineer                     Fort Hunter Liggett, CA

Mr. Christensen upgraded software for the C-Station Simulator, a NSC800-
based controller. He performed as the Systems Administrator for a UNIX-
based, local area network of computer development workstations.

May 1989 - October 1990                      PRC, SSL
Digital Systems Engineer                     Fort Hunter Liggett, CA

Mr. Christensen led a project which designed and produced an improved
version of a popular microprocessor based instrumentation package. He
coordinated hardware procurement specifications, prototypes, supervised
production of the unit, and performed as liaison with outside contractors.
He optimized the design and execution times of the application programs
through the combined use of C and assembly language programming. 

October 1985 - May 1989                      PRC, SSL
Microprocessor Engineer                      Fort Hunter Liggett, CA

Mr. Christensen developed several microprocessor based devices using an
in-circuit emulation development system.  Developed real-time operating
systems and applications to support the processing of field experiment data
representing hits and casualties during simulated war games. Performed as
the system administrator for the microprocessor development workstation. In
addition, he coordinated use and support for DOS-based PC operation.

May 1984 - October 1985                      PRC, SSL
Systems Engineer                             Fort Hunter Liggett, CA

Mr. Christensen designed digital communications protocols to operate over
RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 ports, and other custom serial busses necessary
for communications between a custom, portable backpack unit, a main-frame
computer, and other microprocessor controlled custom equipment.
