DETAILED CHRONOLOGICAL EXPERIENCE 

June 1969 - June 1970,
Engineer, Radar Division

Responsible for design of high-speed digital counters and timers for helicopter moving target detector.

June 1970 - January 1972, 
Engineer, AN/APQ -122V(8) Digital Computer

One of two engineers responsible for the implementation of the first digital Terrain Following computer utilized by TI's Equipment Group. This Harvard architecture CPU was the forerunner of CPU's later used by the MRCA, HARM and HARPOON programs. Specific responsibilities included:

January 1972 - April 1973
Lead Engineer, Special Purpose Radar

Individual contributor in a quick-reaction shop whose projects were conceived and completed in 3-9 months. These short design times were achieved by integrating portions of already existing equipment with new design specific to the task. Projects included:

April 1973 - November 1976
Engineer, MRCA B/C-Model Airborne Computer

Individual contributor responsible for automated test hardware and software for the prototype and pre-production Processor Computer developed for the Panavia Tornado aircraft. Specific duties included:

November 1976 - February 1978
Lead Engineer, MRCA P-Series Airborne Computer

Assumed total responsibility for the Panavia Tornado Processor/Computer (CPU) and Power Supply LRU's. The CPU was a custom TTL processor capable of 280nS 16-bit arithmetic which interfaced with the remaining aircraft avionics and controlled the entire Mapping and Terrain Following radars of the Tornado aircraft (NATO CONFIDENTIAL Clearance). Supervised 6 exempts and 3 non-exempts. Tasks included:

February 1978 - August 1979

Support Engineer, Classified program to migrate digital radar technology into other military programs.
NATO CONFIDENTIAL Clearance.
