To whomever,


My goal is challenging work.  While at Wackenhut Applied Technologies Center, 
I worked on SCO-XENIX, setting up some TCP/IP client-servers.  The client-
server was written entirely in C to support a distributed system.  During
the pursuit of my undergraduate degree I worked part-time, as a PC
programmer.  Though the technology has changed dramatically over the years,
I have kept in touch with PCs as a hobby.  During my assistantship
in graduate school, my research project consisted of a simulation
of a concurrent whiched the SunOS's implementation of lightweight
processes.  Also during graduate school, I specialized in parallel
computation, taking 12 credits in the area.  Here at the National 
Observatory for Radio Astronomy I work in a real time system called 
VxWorks.  All my programming positions have inlcuded C programming,
except the position st Smith-Klien Beecham.

Currently I am single, very relocatable, and able to travel.
Displacements would not be a problem for me.  

My current position here is both enjoyable and challenging, but there is
no guarantee of employment once the project is finished.  This is
also the way it was on my previous job.  So, my current objective is
to secure a place of employment where I find the work enjoyable
and I need not relocate in a year.

Thank you,
Edmond L. Meinfelder

Experience:   SENIOR SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMMER       Natl. Radio Astronomy Obs.
              August 1991 to present             Green Bank, WV 24944
              Designed and wrote software that would calculate the position
              of an orbiting radio telescope from from given ephemeris data.
              Also wrote a parser that would accept commands to control the
              Earth Station used to track the spacecraft.  Programmed in
              FORTRAN and C on a Sun SPARC and VME147 under UNIX and
              VxWorks.

              SOFTWARE ENGINEER                  Wackenhut Applied Technologies
              October 1991 to August 1991        Fairfax, VA 22030
              Senior member of a software team.  Created a software
              controlled alarm system for a DOE facility.  As a senior
              member, created code design for junior members also provided
              much of the the software design for the project.  Programmed
              concurrent processes using Berkely and System V IPC methods.
              Communications drivers were created for both TCP/IP and
              SLIP lines.  All concurrent synchronization schemes were
              designed by myself.

              government agency across two public carriers.  Used the
              Standard Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to poll a cisco
              router for statistical information that was processed in an
              AWK program.  All work was performed on a Sun 3/80 using C,
              the C shell, AWK, Lex and Yacc.  Held a SECRET level
