Attended Booz Allen Hamilton Big Data boot camp. – Program focused on programming and analyzing the following open source technologies, Oracle VM VirtualBox, VMware Player, Hadoop/HBase, Java coding of Map/Reduce programs, Accumulo. Preparing Data Science course materials. Techniques include: Statistical Analysis, Clustering, Semantic Analysis (tagging.

Evaluated new data storage hardware (Violin, Texas Memory/IBM, Nexsan, EMC, Hitachi, OCZ and others), network/bus architectures (Fiber Channel, PCI-e, Infiniband), software systems (HPCC, MapReduce/Hadoop, Talend, Greenplum etc.) and commercial cloud solution offerings (Amazon, Google etc.) in support of the USHMM study (discussed below) and business.

Evaluated emerging network technologies and their possible impacts on Intelligence community operation. These reports focused on international network development noting national and regional technical and funding differences and allowed the Agency to prioritize near-term and long-term threats and exploits. Focused on IPv6 applications (sensor networks.

Manage a research and development lab that evaluates new computer hardware and software technologies that provide answers to critical problems within the U.S. Federal government.

Integrated very large heterogeneous datasets into a common analytic data model. This model has fueled the development of a new class of analysis within my customer. I developed a text-based address standardization capability. I evaluated several new commercial technologies for use with my customer. I co-presented a paper on the obstacles to information.

Built traffic forecasting models for international data networking organization. I helped to eliminate unnecessary investments in circuits. I correlated network performance and reliability metrics with costing models. This analysis was used to control international engineering and equipment budgets. I determined technical and economic metrics for.

Managed the Systems Performance and Optimization Team of seven scientists/engineers for three years. This team produced revenues over $1.8 million/year. Designed, built and operated network performance and capacity systems for DISA, JPO and TCS. TCS involved over 5,000 sites. DISA had a few hundred sites. JPO involved an experimental network using.

Wrote five business proposals to operate government data networks. Built a corporate skills database for use on government proposals and RFIs. Re-wrote six X.25 drivers for Dow Jones Information Services to provide ultra-high reliable information services for their clients.

Coordinated development and ported the MSE network management system that consisted of 500,000+ lines of C and assembler code. I also managed testing services for this system. Managed the development and deployment of ViewNet (a distributed network management system) for DISA that consisted of 130,000+ lines of C and assembler code. Managed the development.

Migrated a VSAT system from UNIX to VMS. VSAT system contained 200,000+ lines of C and assembler code. Migration included correcting Ethernet drivers. Designed, built, operated and documented a Configuration Management system across a VMS network. Designed, built and tested CCITT #7 signaling test drivers for a German Bundespost satellite telephone system..

Supported retail networks for Tiffanys, Gee-Bees, Toys-Я-Us, and David Weis. Developed an interface between NCR networks and IBM mainframes for Tiffanys.
