Typical requirements were reinstallation of Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Redhat Enterprise Linux. Additionally, troubleshooting malfunctioning hardware and software was common.Development roles performed by Walter included system administration, system testing, web application development, and participation in development planning. Tools typically used in this role were Redhat Enterprise Linux, Perl, Apache Web Server, and MySQL. The specific jobs that were done on site varied from week to week.

completed a technical internship at a government research project. This internship was two months in duration and culminated in a presentation, a written technical report, and the implementation of a web services extension to the system. The overall goal of the system was to create a database of information on earth science experiments conducted around the world. The database contained pointers to the datasets that resulted from these experiments.Walter implemented a web service interface to this moderately sized database system. This allowed researchers to retrieve various details about datasets from the system. Essentially, scientists were able to design their own methods of accessing the information due to the way in which the information was presented by the web service. Technologies Used: Java, Linux, SOAP, WSDL, XML, Ant
