Feeling exhausted? Drained from stress? What are your dreams telling you?Anyone who helps others overcome physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual problems is a healer. Unfortunately, people who devote their energy to serving others often feel a growing sense of mental and physical exhaustion. Left untended, they face compassion fatigue, or burnout.Healers walk many paths:* physicians, surgeons, and nurses* psychiatrists, psychologists, and counselors* emergency medical technicians (EMT) and paramedics* social workers, ministers, coaches* other medical and mental health professions* educators and caregivers also give of themselves to benefit others!Indigenous wisdom teaches that you cannot heal if you are broken.Are you feeling like there is not enough time to take care of everyone, and yourself as well. Let me show you how! Dr. Ana Maria Tekina-eirú Maynard is a Dreamwork & Master Certified Spiritual Life Coach (MCC, CLC, CSC), as well as certified group and laser coach (CGC, CLAC) through the World Coach Institute. Trained exclusively through International Coach Federation programs.More Info:http://flametree.com/amg/NaturesClarityCoach.htm

Also, I/O, uniprocessor and symmetric multiprocessor performance issues for OS/2 on Intel-Based systems for server market.

Investigated how processor idle time may be utilized to provide error detection in high performance pipelined processors. This unique concept, and its more general applicability, was invented while doing PhD Thesis research and is today known as "Multithreading."

Investigated how numerical algorithms are programmed on high performance machines. Implemented Linpack routines on an experimental high performance processor in the native assembly language of the processor, and measured its performance.

Designed and performed layout of a packet switching network for use in multiprocessor communications. Used ICON, a layout and simulation tool, for CMOS VLSI layout.

Conducted fault-free performance validation of SIFT, an experimental multiprocessor system designed to provide extremely reliable computing service for critical functions in aircraft.

Used Prolog to describe and evaluate logic circuits. Implemented behavioral descriptions for both combinational and synchronous sequential circuit, and verified them for functional correctness.
