Provided technical direction and expertise for development of advanced submarine nuclear propulsion plants and operating procedures.Launched an effort to evaluate wireless technologies for shipboard computer networks in propulsion plant spaces. This effort included the evaluation of encryption technologies that would support National Security Administration requirements for transmitting classified information as well as identifying electromagnetic interference that could adversely affect… Show more Provided technical direction and expertise for development of advanced submarine nuclear propulsion plants and operating procedures.Launched an effort to evaluate wireless technologies for shipboard computer networks in propulsion plant spaces. This effort included the evaluation of encryption technologies that would support National Security Administration requirements for transmitting classified information as well as identifying electromagnetic interference that could adversely affect reactor plant instrumentation and control equipment.Drove efforts to develop a common, interoperable software application suite for use on all Naval nuclear-powered vessels to reduce administrative burden and enhance watchstander effectiveness.Coordinated the expeditious headquarters evaluation of hundreds of construction, design, and logistics products in support of the USS VIRGINIA (SSN 774) construction schedule.Oversaw the implementation of interactive electronic technical manual (IETM) technology for shipboard use of propulsion plant publications. This project included consideration of the tools and technologies used to prepare source documents, deliver document changes to forces ashore and afloat, and platform requirements for end use of IETM's.
