Tekmark Computer Services, Inc., Edison,
NJ. Software Engineer/Developer, Consultant to AT&T, NJ. Duties: Primary duty consisted of providing technical consultation to AT&T at Murray Hills NJ. Present Projects Undertaken: • Developed an application in PowerBuilder 4.0 and later in 5.0 using an ORACLE7 database as the backend to automatically prompt the user and upgrade AT&T's Executive Information System whenever a newer version was available. The application utilizes PowerBuilder's graphing capabilities, making use of OLE, DDE, MDI design and drag and drop features to facilitate the user interface along with an extensive database developed in Microsoft Access, a separate program developed in Microsoft Visual Basic and several other batch programs written in Microsoft DOS. • Developed the Executive Information System for the Internet using Java, Perl and HTML. The application utilizes applets to deliver the front end and CGI scripts in Perl along with ProC to communicate to an ORACLE7 database being used as the backend. • Installed, configured and maintained the Netscape Commerce Web Server on a Silicon Graphics machine running IRIX 5.3 for the EIS application. The server was configured to allow access only to certain machines and denying it to all the rest. A login screen was also used to further secure the application against unauthorized access. • Also installed, configured, maintained and tested the NCSA 1.5c web server for the same purpose of running the EIS application. • Installed, configure and tested the Citrix Web Server to enable the Windows version of the EIS application to be used through a web browser with all its functionalities without having to convert it into web format first. This allowed the users to utilize all the features of the application at a high communication rate without having to first migrate them over to the web side. • Discovered the most optimum solution for the installation of Microsoft Windows 95 to work with the current hardware being used at AT&T and to communicate with the network using both Microsoft and Netmanage stack. • Solved all the technical issues concerning development, production and implementation of the EIS system along with various other software engineering tasks. • Designed the department home page using HTML 2.0 standards. Ciba Corporation. Marketing Department, Intern,

by implementing OLE, MDI design, various styles of datawindows, drag and
drop capabilities along with many other graphing features offered by PowerBuilder.
• Developed an inventory system at NJIT for the NJIT bookstore using PowerBuilder 3.0. The system kept track of books available for various courses and also helped the staff order books which were required upon shortage.
