Performing maintenance programming in Java on ASPEN, a radar signal analysis tool suite that is used by technical electronic intelligence (TECH ELINT) analysts to discover radar system capabilities and functions.Designed GUI front end as well as server-side back end for a radar scan simulator as part of a new ASPEN radar scan analysis and modeling tool.

North Syracuse, New York, Us

Designed and developed software modifications in C++ (QNX RTOS, RTI DDS) for the AN/TPQ-50 radar to enable it to perform simultaneous target tracking and air search missions. Designed and developed a Java persistence mechanism (High-performance Persistence Framework or HPF, patent application in process) for mining large volumes of electromagnetic data for signals of interest. Resulted in much higher performance than previous approach based on commercial relational databases.Designed and developed Java chemical classification software for performing analog identification matching (AIM) to classify a new chemical against an existing database of chemicals to determine potential carcinogenic or toxicity hazards. Reduced analysis time from days to fraction of a second, presented this work to the analytic chemistry community at QSAR 2008. Led to SRC being awarded the ChemACE contract from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).Authored requirements for, designed and developed electromagnetic statistical evaluation tools in Java (Windows) for detection of threat signals in battle theaters. Reduced analysis time from days to hours.Designed and developed cyber data mining software in Java (Mac OS X) based on HPF for the Air Force Computer Emergency Response Team (AFCERT) at Lackland AFB. Time to detect intrusions, exfiltrations, etc. reduced from 24+ hours to seconds. Successfully deployed turnkey system to AFCERTDesigned and developed Domain Specific Language (DSL), the Radar Signal Description Language (RSDL), for modeling complex radar signals. Designed and developed the Concurrent Classification and Deinterleaving Machine (CCDM) software in Java, a novel state-machine based approach for concurrent emitter deinterleaving and classification as well as simulation (patent awarded)Received Several Achievement Awards and an Inventor’s Award
