Summary:
 
 Five years of strong experience in application development 
using C, FORTRAN, RDB, DCL, RMS and SMG in VAX/VMS, Open VMS,
DEC Alpha environment. Development experience in Visual C++for 
the Windows NT   environment. Excellent system administration skills.
Experienced in configuring and managing huge Open VMS clusters 
involving VAX and DEC Alpha.
 
 
Tools/Skills:
        Languages: C, Fortran, Visual C++
        Protocols: TCP/IP, DECnet
        Tools:     X-Windows, Motif, SMG
        RDBMS:         RDB, MS SQL Server
        Hardware:  VAX, Alpha
        Operating system: VAX/VMS, Open VMS, Windows NT
 
Experience:
 
        ACE Technologies, Inc
        Client: Data Broadcasting Corporation, CA
        Feb 2000 – Till Date
        Environment: DEC Alpha, OpenVMS, DEC C
 
        
Enhancements to a real-time trading information processing system, to give 
pricing information for securities, on a per exchange basis. The system 
receives trading information for securities, options and futures from 
several exchanges through SIAC, parses, processes, and packs into DBC’s 
proprietary format, and sends out to the clients via TCP/IP multicast. 
This system feeds DBC’s eSignal applications. The project was to process 
the regional pricing information, from different exchanges.
 
        ACE Technologies, Inc
        Client: Comtex News Network, Alexandria, VA
        May 1999 – Feb 2000
        Environment: Windows NT, Visual C++, SQL, XML, Open VMS,
                 C, FORTRAN, PLI, Informix
 
        This project involves the maintenance of a real-time news 
processing system on Open VMS environment as well as migrating it to 
a new system on Windows NT environment. The system serves over 375 
companies with real-time news. It receives news stories 
from over 45 global publishers (via leased lines, FTP and internet
mail), formats them according to the ANPA standards, categorizes 
and distributes them to the customers. The existing system is based on 
a VAX/VMS cluster which is getting migrated on to Windows NT 
environment.
