Very good

Successfully taught 7-month software developer courses featuring Java, C++, C, OOD, MFC and Visual basic.  (Also taught java evening courses).

Designed course material, lecture notes, handouts, tests, and project sessions with special emphasis on applications programming in Windows MFC.

	Orbital/collision threaded simulations
	2D/3D grapher, parametric equations interpreted and graphed in real-time.
	Games with AI (chess/Tron light cycle simulation).
	Doctor/patient medical database with symptoms/diagnosis/remedy querying.
	3D wireframe viewer DLL driven from VB .

Designed and built an all-purpose multimedia authoring tool MasterMedia in Director that allows users to create their own multimedia presentations.

Users import and sequence their text, graphics, flash, video and audio, and with the help of various wizards and templates create professional presentations, superlearning apps and CBT's.

Users File..Export the disk image to web sites and/or CD for distribution.  A downloadable 'player' version delivers the client's end product on the host machine.

Worked extensively with geophysicists to design GEMS, Generic Earth Science Modelling Shell, written in C using Openlook running on Sun Sparc stations, a tool which allowed the scientists to create crustal modelling sessions, run the gamut of pertinent modelling programs, monitor and sequence input/output files during the complex modelling cycle involved in seismic research and map-making.

Designed a graphical 2D polygon model editor as one of the modelling nodes within GEMS.

Assisted in the development of prototype of a Service Object Management system in C++ on Sun workstations.

Designed an object-oriented user interface to manipulate objects of arbitrary classes

Based on the above design, implemented a GUI in NT signature

Proposed and experimented with different graphical methods of displaying and updating object data.

Assisted in the development of a graphical user-interface management system (UIMX) built on X and X toolkit running on Sun/HP workstations.

Designed load/save functions to read/write widget info in user-readable ascii form.

Designed a C to ascii-form file translator to convert C-code interface files to user-readable ascii files.

Created a chess analyzer running under UIMX for product demo purposes.

Enhanced a universal plotting program using fortran UNIRAS calls on a VAX 8700 to generate professional colour maps on Applicon and Versatec plotters.

Improved 3D appearance of shaded colour maps by overlaying various maps, enhancing colors and experimenting with image data quantization.

Designed a graphical profile point extraction program and a 2D image enhancement FFT algorithm using 1D routines, running as counterparts of an existing magnetic/gravity modelling tool MAGRAV2.

Received extensive experience in IBM mainframe batch environment with TSO/ISPF, programming in PL/1 and using JCL.

Maintained directory subsystem for the individual insurance claims department.

Designed a system in PL/1 to manage programmer projects and create progress reports

Managed and operated my own software business.

Designed and marketed in Ontario and the US three educational software packages for Apple // and Commodore 64 microcomputers:

	Chemdrill  - a chemical nomenclature package.
	Computatus - a Latin translation testing system.
	Derivatus Computatus - an English derivative package.
