As a member of the Review team, conducted requirements analysis and design for UI features and overall system architecture of tools Architecture Browser and CallGraph, which render graphical views of compiled switching software components within a client-server paradigm. These are currently deployed to more than 3,000 DMS designers in Nortel. Requirements gathering, analysis & design was done using Jacobson's Object-Oriented Software Engineering (OOSE) methodology. Implemented the design of Architecture Browser GUI in C++ using CenterLine development environment with Rogue Wave Tools.h++/Views.h++ and iLOG Views libraries. Developed reusable GUI classes for both programs. Prototyped data engine server design using Smalltalk (Digitalk) and C++. Developed and maintained Perl script components of data engine that interact with PLS source code repository. As process and quality prime, he led the Review team in preparation for an external ISO 9001 conformance audit. Researched and developed a software development process document to be used by the team, and developed documents for high-level system design, and quality and coding standards. Implemented a WWW-based Action Tracking System using CGI scripts (Perl), conducted demos and training at Nortel labs.

Programmer/Analyst (GUI Programming in C): Wrote C programs for graphically displaying towed array sonar data in two-dimensional form (2D) using graphics libraries and toolkits on an SGI Personal Iris workstation platform running Irix (Unix). Built data transfer programs in VMS to handle FTP transfers to Unix.C Programming/Oracle RDBMS Development for Atlantic Geoscience Centre: Designed and programmed new map-plotting software package in C on Ultrix (Unix) and DOS platforms. Developed a relational database interface for managing the inventory of geological records for the AGC, using Oracle tools in an Ultrix (Unix) environment on a DEC 5400 platform. Designed and developed Pro*C programs to generate reports from queries on the new Oracle database tables. Other skills used: documentation; instruction to LAN users; project management; network backup supervision.
