Most of my career has been with projects that involve data and network communications in some form or another. I have hands-on experience of developing X.25 network components through to the monitoring of high speed ATM networks. I understand the problems and time constraints imposed on the software for data communication applications.

I have often worked with customers to ensure that two pieces of communication equipment will work together.

I have designed and specified communication protocols for various applications (e.g. software download, client/server applications, data monitoring).

The applications include point of sale terminals which use slow speed modems to get the transaction authorisation and to send the transaction information to the host.  I have developed non-intrusive network monitoring systems.  Special problems exist in this application as the system has to be able to accept and process the data at the maximum rate.
