Professional Interests
Cryptography, optimization problems, low level code, device drivers, research
prototypes, network applications.
Professional Strengths
My experience covers a range of software projects involving all aspects of the
software development life-cycle. This software was developed for various
operating systems using programming languages appropriate to the
application.
My communication skills are excellent. I work well as part of a team or alone.
I have earned the respect from my colleagues because I negotiate realistic
deliverables and then meet milestones and finish projects within the
scheduled time constraints. Communication is the key to maintaining
reasonable expectations under tight schedules.
Some of my best work has been writing network applications and low level
software working at the hardware interface. I enjoy working on difficult
problems.
There is something satisfying about turning a concept into reality. I am a
hands-on kind of person who enjoys giving ideas traction - where the
research meets the road. I am a results oriented person.

Experience
CSIRO, Sydney Australia
August 2006 to January 2011, Research Team Leader, Information
and Communication Technologies Centre (ICT)
Line manager for the Research Engineering Team of the Network
Technologies Lab in the CSIRO ICT Centre. Supervised, mentored and
protected from interference a team of uniquely skilled software developers.
Worked in consultation with senior CSIRO scientists to give accurate time and
human resource estimates for development of various research projects
from proof of concept to partner hand-off.
Quality of Service (QOS) project using a novel Internet Rate Management
Protocol (RMP). Designed and developed RMP in microcode for EzChip
Network Processor Units. Validated RMP using high volume traffic with
video, VOIP and data traffic. Design issues include asynchronous packet
processing vs microcode instruction limit to insure line-speed throughput.
Dynamic Collaboration Service (DCS) is a project combining several research
projects. DCS used timed, self-managed collaborations using eContract
research and a Key Ephemeriser. Security provided by Trusted Extension
