  • Panametrics (Waltham, MA) via the Entegee Agency (Waltham, MA) (April 2000) - this was a short term contract to develop a Windows-like GUI for an embedded system (Motorola 68323 series) hosted in a hand-held instrument for measuring gas flow and pressure.  Rational Rose UML modeling and round trip engineering were used to create a C++ application for this system.
  • WSU Small Business Development Center (SBDC) (1990-95) - this ongoing contract with SBDC provides my services as a patent / product reviewer to inventors wishing to submit their idea for review prior to patent application or venture capital procurement.
  • Kreager Associates, Inc (KAI) (1994-95) - this ongoing University contract with KAI is for the development of a proprietary computer network (ETHERNET) CAD tool using C/C++ to function under the Microsoft Windows operating environment.
  • PWS/Kent Publishing Co. (1993-94) - this work involved the review of two books, one on the topic of the DEMETER object oriented development environment, and the other on Power PC Assembly Language Programming.
  • Bedini Electronics / Tom Walsh, Patent Atty (1993) - this work involved assisting the client in obtaining a patent (#5,487,057 - US Patent Office: Apparatus and Method for Reducing Electronic Relaxation Noise Present in Information Recording Medium issued January 23, 1996) for a device that improves the sound of CD audio recordings, by electronically measuring the result of applying his device, and preparing reports for the patent application process.
  • Modeling Technologies Inc /ZDI (1991) - this work involved the assistance of a party involved with a GTE contract associated with the GBMS (1987) for which I was group leader. The party was entitled to a copy of the software developed according to a technology sharing agreement with GTE and needed some additional assistance in installing / operating the software after the contract with GTE ended. The client was referred to me by the GTE corporate attorney.
  • Hewlett Packard, Spokane Division (1990) Enhancement of the HP 11836A 0.3 GMSK Modulation Measurement Software Package - this university contract involved software maintenance to an electronic instrument that performed modulation analysis. Modulation rate, packet bit size, and digital filter configurations had to be changed, and the system tested against laboratory hardware.
  • National CSS (1969) - this work involved installation of the Electronic Circuit Analysis Package (ECAP) on the VP/CSS time sharing system (similar to VM/370 CMS). The original program as delivered required overlays, which did not function well under virtual memory, and had to be reorganized.
