At General Dynamics Mission Systems - Canada, I am a principle systems scientist holding the position of Solution Architect in the area of Land Command and Control, Communications, Computers, Cybersecurity, Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance (LC5ISR). Over my career within GDMS-Canada, I have been a principle systems architect for Canada and several other International programs. I have been the technical lead on many internal and joint research and development projects. My next endeavour is the realization of a digital fabric through the practical use of emerging network and hybrid cloud technologies to bring solutions to our customers (including the pragmatic use of AI/ML).The majority of my career has been centred on software intensive and complex systems, specifically: mobile tactical communications & information systems, distributed computing, scalable fault-tolerant systems, scientific and numerically intense algorithms, information modeling and database optimization, and artificial intelligent knowledge-based advisory, diagnostic systems, and optimization problems (deductive production systems, abductive logic, fuzzy logic, and genetic algorithms).I have many years of experience in systems of systems architecture, architecture frameworks, systems and software design across a wide variety of projects in a diversity of domains including defence, aerospace, agriculture, Internet, oil & gas, finance, pulp & paper, and telecommunications.
