`commercial RDBMS products. Implemented a comprehensive set of statistical analysis
`tools including multivariate regression and confidence level testing to facilitate yield
`trend and production scheduling for semiconductor manufacturers. Developed a
`messaging transaction system - "Integration Server" for WIP/MES back-end business
`processes. Various technologies were incorporated including: RMI, JMS input queue and
`JNDI for naming services.
`
`The design was implemented with Oracle 9.2 loader and schema validation technology,
`and required user ETL data to be formatted as XML documents. Java 2 SE was the
`implementation platform language. The web server, based on the Tomcat open source
`code from the Apache Consortium, was enhanced to provide comprehensive access
`control according to user class, and included integrated end-user script-based
`customization (using the open source Python interpreter). XML objects were used
`extensively to represent web server data structures in the core implementation. High
`volume datalog insertion (ETL) back-end functionality was implemented for user uploads
`via FTP. An earlier generation C-coded CGI version was also supported. All products
`developed were web server solutions, with access via a standard browser. Responsible for
`creating and managing design teams as well as quality assurance, configuration
`management, technical hosting operations, and technical documentation groups.
`Responsible for product functional specifications, source code control, defect tracking,
`configuration/build management, and application validation.
`
`Responsible for a team of 40 people across four groups that included software
`engineering, database design, quality assurance and technical operations. Java 2 was the
`implementation platform language, and Oracle 8.1.6 was used for the warehouse
`database. All products were designed as web server solutions, with access via a standard
`browser. Responsible for creating and managing design teams as well as quality
`assurance, configuration management, technical hosting operations and technical
`documentation groups. Detailed understanding of source code control, defect tracking,
`configuration management and build tracking.
`
`Customers using the hosting subscription center run under contractual Service Level
`Agreements (SLA). The ASP hosted service is currently implemented on an E4800 Sun
`application server running Solaris 8, connected to an Oracle database server (Oracle
`8.1.6). Storage totaling approximately 1 Terabyte is provided through a combination of
`the EMC Clarion System 1 storage arrays (Raid-5) accessed via fiber channel, and
`network attached storage using the Network Appliances NetApp devices. Veritas
`SANPoint Foundation Suite HA for Solaris is used as the storage management tool.

`
`
`This project involved disaster recovery cold site planning for the Charles Schwab Online
`Web Trading facility. The web capability was capable of handling 200,000+ concurrent
`users, and was implemented with 300 load-sharing IBM gateway servers working behind
`eight Cisco Catalyst 7500 routers. The traffic was distributed across the front line servers
`and routed to an ensemble of 200 middle tier servers, which manage the business objects
`and execute the trades. In the third tier, customer financial and demographic data was
`maintained on a group of seven IBM mainframes running DB2. A design was formulated
`that gives the Schwab organization a contingency backup system in the event of
`catastrophic failure of the main site.

`implement 3 tier, thin-client framework, using Java business objects running on an
`application server. Established effective methodologies for fostering cooperation in
`development projects requiring the participation of geographically remote design and
`development teams.
`
`Developed a pure Java client-server system to support an end user form builder
`application. The objective of this project was to demonstrate an application server-centric
`3-tier architecture. Application servers are dispensers of services, and a Java compilation
`service was the central technology being demonstrated. The pilot development provided
`building blocks to support a broad variety business object models, forms architectures,
`and rules engines. (JDK 1.1)
`
` A
`
` full-functionality GUI in Java was also developed, along with a Java-based
`Customization Workbench, built, using the form class metaphor, which is familiar to
`users of Visual Café, JBuilder, or J++ 6.0. The Java Swing classes were used in the
`implementation.
`
`Created a prototype OLAP decision support analysis system. The Platinum Info Report
`pack contained OLAP cubes specific to the Platinum ERA financial, distribution and
`manufacturing data. OLAP cubes were implemented on top of core Platinum applications
`to enable multi-dimensional analysis on key business drivers such as sales activity.
`Reports contained in the Info Report Pack were designed to leverage graphical,
