Dear Prospective Employer:

I am a Masters student in Computer Science and expect to graduate in Dec, 1992.
I have 2 years experience as an graduate assistant, and undergraduate, working
for the Concurrent Engineering Research Center (CERC), Morgantown, WV.  During
this time I have gained much experience using C++ and Object Oriented Design
and Development techniques, as specified in my resume that follows.  I look 
forward to relocating and applying my knowledge to your company.  My phone 
number and email address are specified in my resume.

Objective:
 To obtain a challenging position in the research and development of collabora-
 ive techniques for integrated product development.

Education:
 o M.S. (Computer Science), West Virginia University, Morgantown WV (Dec. 1992)
 o B.S. (Computer Science), West Virginia University, Morgantown WV (Aug. 1991)

Work Experience:
 January, 1991 - present. Graduate Research Assistant, Concurrent Engineering 
 Research Center, Morgantown, WV.
 Developed a Constraint Management System (CMS), using C++, for coordinating a
 team of product developers in a distributed environment. Specifically, the 
 following modules were designed and developed:
     o A module to monitor constraints. The monitoring module notifies users 
       when a constraint violation occurs and also maintains the history of 
       constraints being monitored. 
     o Modules for representing logical and conditional constraints, so that 
       a broaderrange of design activities could be supported by the CMS.
     o A concurrent access module, to allow multi-user access to the CMS.
     o A constraint schema so that existing designs could be translated by the
       developer into the CMS.
     o A form-driven user interface using X11R5 and motif, with assistance from
       Builder Xcessory.

 September, 1988 - May, 1989. Tutor, Concord College, Athens, WV.
 Helped teach students Algebra, Calculus, Trigonometry, and programming in 
 BASIC.

Projects:
 o Developed a mini compiler for a subset of the C language, using C.
 o Designed a multiprocessor operating system subset for the IBM/PS2, including
   DOS device drivers, using C.
 o Designed and implemented a forward chaining inference engine and a generic 
   advisor in LISP.

Thesis:
 Title - "A Constraint Management System for Team Coordination in a Distrib-
 uted Environment." Developed modules in the CMS to allow for constraint mon-
 itoring, representation of logical and conditional constraints, concurrent 
 access, and a schema for constraint representation (see above).

   technique. 
 o Proficient in the C++ and C programming languages. Have used LISP, PASCAL, 
   PL/I, COBOL, FORTRAN, and ADA programming languages.
 o Developed a form-driven user interface using Motif and Builder Xcessory.
 o Have extensively used the following software packages: Motif, Builder Xces-
   sory, Framemaker, Microsoft Word, Wordperfect.
 o Have worked on the following machines and operating systems: DEC 5000 and 
   DEC 2000 (Ultrix), Sun system 4 (Sun OS 4.1.1), and IBM running AIX and 
   MS-DOS.
