AFAS is written in Java and consists of well over 1 million lines of source code.AFAS is designed to run in a clustered computing environment. It currently runs on an IBM Blade Cluster which consists of one or more master nodes that distribute calculation and reporting jobs over slave nodes in the cluster. I assist in supporting the code that manages job distribution and monitoring on the clusters as well as the web application that is used by operators to manage the day-to-day business processing.The web application mentioned above is called AFAS WebConsole and is written in Java, Java Server Pages (JSP), HTML, Java Script and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). AFAS WebConsole runs under Jakarta Tomcat. I assisted with the enhancement, maintenance and support of AFAS WebConsole.I did Crystal Reports development during my time at Andesa. As part of each day's automated processing, the AFAS system generates various reports in PDF, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word and Rich Text Format (RTF) for our clients. Part of my responsibilities have been creating Crystal Reports to client specifications and providing on-going support and enhancement of such.In addition, I served as backup administrator for the Subversion version control system, internal Wiki and Bugzilla defect tracking system for the organization. Both run on the same host under an Apache web server. Show less

The MetaStar framework was designed to help all types of organizations, whether public or private, capture, organize, manage, disseminate, utilize, and share information by utilizing the Z39.50 search protocol. Blue Angel's solutions were intended to function as an access point to virtually any information resource regardless of whether the information resided within or outside the enterprise.I worked at Blue Angel Technologies as a software developer and was integral in the development of many of the components of Blue Angel's MetaStar suite programs. These tools included the following:MetaStar Harvester - This component was written in Java and was a web crawler that harvest information from web pages. Typically this harvested information would be saved as XML and be indexed by MetaStar Server. I enhanced and supported this component.MetaStar Server - MetaStar Server was designed to index XML metadata and make the information available via the Z39.50 search protocol (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z39.50). MetaStar Server used a variety of indexing engines like AltaVista, Fulcum Search Server and Oracle XML. MetaStar Server was written in C++, and I was integral in the day-to-day enhancement and support of this application.MetaStar Gateway - Was a Java servlet that was capable of searching disparate Z39.50 data sources and merging the search results for unified presentation over the web. I supported and enhanced this application.MetaStar Data Entry - Was a Java web application used to store and manage metadata and make it available for searching via MetaStar Server. It included a workflow engine that allowed information to be vetted and approved before being published over Z39.50. I was integral in the development and day-to-day enhancement and support of this component. Show less
