Nov 99 - Oct 04,
Teletrack Inc., Norcross GA, Principal Engineer
| |
Designed and developed multiple web applications to provide business functions and realtime access to backend credit reporting databases and telephony systems. All backend server solutions were developed in C++ under Linux and Windows. The apps utilized TCP/IP, ODBC, HTTP, and dynamically generated HTML reports. The static web forms and reports for the app were developed with HTML and JavaScript. Also developed an API library for distribution to clients of this service. The API authenticates users, accesses an RDBMS, communicates via TCP/IP and HTTP, and formats HTML reports. Also developed an app to access a legacy server via an IVR fax-back reporting system and a large number of DigiBoard serial ports for dial-up TTY modem access. Also provided external clients access to the legacy system via a TCP/IP API. These are high volume multi-user multi-threaded multi-platform applications using C++, Linux, SCO Unix, Windows 2000, GNU tools, SQL Server, asymmetric public key cryptography, symmetric crypto, MinGW, Win32 API.

Designed and developed web applications to integrate with a legacy mainframe database system, warehouse automation equipment, and access functions and statistics of a large call center. These provide users with instant Internet access to the functionality of the legacy system. The web apps were designed from the ground up to be multi-threaded, distributed processing ready, and very high-volume capable. Also developed a warehouse shipping system to manage a database of shipments and control warehouse machinery via 64 serial lines. Used HP-UX and Sun Solaris, GNU C++, ORACLE, and Triple-DES encryption.

server for an OEM line of DSL routers. This included the
development of a proprietary CGI language that allowed dynamic
web page creation and access to the routers database. These
applications allowed users to login and perform administration
tasks on the router via the Internet. Applications were developed
using WindRiver's C++ and VxWorks OS.
