Write requirements specifications for video footage production and provide Internet based technology expertise to assure telecommunication quality and reliability.

All Programmable Planet is a blog dedicate to the publication of articles in the area of Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) and associated Micro-controllers. Membership typically comprises of electrical/electronic engineers and technologists who participate of a weekly chat, discuss blog postings, and meet at conferences such as UBM Design West and UBM Design East. It is a fun group of international engineers and think alike.(grin)Visit: All Programmable Planet link below for more specific information and instructions on how to join our group.Alternatively check: EE|Times link www.eetimes.com for more blogs and information about the umbrella organization.

Endless Energy Devices is a project under development. More information will become available, as new milestone phases are completed. At this stage we have a line of smart building power distribution systems under prototyping while fund procurement takes place.We have recently added a new division to our company. This division is engaged in the development and distribution of aerospace engineering design tools. Our first product is called the Opti-Mizer(TM). This iOS specialized calculator is geared to assist the product engineer to speed up the process of developing the product requirement specifications during the early phases of development. The first release will produce optimal performance requirement specifications for generic mechanical or electromechanical actuators. Opti-Mizer(TM) is now in the prototype form and is undef tests and review by our internal team and soon will begin external evaluation by potential customers. Feel free to write to us of your interest in Opti-Mizer(TM)If you are interested in these projects and want to become an investor, please, contact us via e-mail at luizcosta@sbcglobal.net or LinkedIn at www.linkedin.com/pub/luiz-costa/3/720/391

The company provides interpreter services We facilitate effective communication between various medical, educational, or business organizations and limited English proficient people.Please, check: http://www.interpreternetworks.net/about.php for more details.

 Designed, modeled, and coordinated testing of furniture prototypes. Conducted research and created design proposals for new work-orders. Developed criteria and performance benchmarks, as well as production processes based on customer specifications, in order to meet standards as guiding documents to ensure high quality production output and customer timelines. Identified and selected sustainable materials needed for production. Produced final drawings and specifications for new furniture components and complete units always keeping in mind standardization that improved cost, quality, and delivery schedule. Created new BOMs for new assemblies or sub-assemblies. Coordinated the making of working models and samples for demonstration and proof of concept. Developed Failure Modes and Effects Analysis document for new and existing furniture or components. Worked with sales, manufacturing, and quality function teams to create proper control plans. Helped develop appropriate production processes to maximize total quality improvement through product development re-engineering. Used 2D and 3D computer-aided design and manufacturing such as AutoCAD and SolidWorks to model, prototype, as well as CADCODE 3D drawings to produce the CNC machine code for all saw and drill tasks throughout the factory floor. Coordinated the selection of the appropriate tooling by the CNC machines during the process of CADCODE programming, in order to optimize machine performance.

Activities involve model based Electromechanical Actuator control systems requirement specifications, design, analysis, simulation, state estimation, parameter identification, testing, and model validation procedures.Position requires many electrical and control systems engineering core competencies. In addition, the main activities require the use of software system that are part of IBM Rational DOORS, MathWorks' MatLab suite such as several Simulink modules, Optimization Toolbox, and Control System Toolbox.Additional software systems connected to formal design documentation are used to compose and maintain requirements specifications, detailed design, as well as verification and validation test data.

Career transition and branding as well as business development. Look at MiSG web site for more detailed information on the program..

Lecture and Conduct Laboratory Activities in the Electrical/Electronics Engineering Technology & Computer Networks and Systems Department of the SCHOOL OF CNS, EET, MET, SURVEYING @ Ferris State University.

As an Adjunct Instructor at the Institute, taught classes on microprocessor programming and design, electronics, computer programming (C/C++), and Wireless Telecommunications.After many years in the private and public sector as a design engineer, this marks a return to academia, a happy one. I don't think I want to stop teaching until it makes sense to retire.Another area of interest in education is student service coordination and research.

- Managed the Telecommunications Department for all divisions of the Utility- Oversaw the telecommunication interfaces with City Hall, other City Departments, and surrounding township governments, and School Districts- Wrote feasibility studies for the construction of a fiber optic cable based public telecommunication infrastructure.- Designed, procured, and managed the construction of the public telecommunications infrastructure in Holland, with extensions to several other cities and townships in the metropolitan Holland area.- Developed business partnerships, and promoted the use of a common, open communications infrastructure to foster economic development in West Michigan.

I taught for 8 years in the late 70s and early 80s electrical engineering students in the fields of microwave and controls systems engineering, as well as electromagneti theory and electrical measurement and instrumentation.
