Computer skills
Programming in alphabetical order |
Ada | During my work on several projects at the IFR - for which I used Ada 95 - I began to appreciate this programming language as a powerful means for Object Oriented Programming (OOP) of robust and stable applications. |
Basic | Basic was the programming language I grew up with, using it to program my first computer - a Commodore C-64. |
C & C++ |
During the work at the IFR I began programming C++ to implement several Windows applications. One of these applications was a Graphical User Interface (GUI) with the instruments of an aircraft cockpit for the simulation software AniSimwe developed at that time. Other parts of this software on a Unix system were programmed using C. At the AEM I used C++ to develop the ComDATSS simulation software as part of the work for my Ph.D. |
DXL Scripting | This is a scripting language that is used by the Telelogic Dynamic Object Oriented Requirements System (DOORS). I have developed several GUI and non-GUI tools for it. |
Fortran | Although Fortran is one of the older programming languages I did take a class at the University of Stuttgart. |
Html | I learned Html as part of the Internet Programming class I took at the UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA and also by working on my Web Sites. |
Java | Java was also taught as part of the Internet Programming class. As projects I implemented a Tic Tac Toe Java Applet and a Java Client/Server Application using Java Networking & Threading. |
JavaScript | In addition to Html the Internet Programming class has taught me how to program JavaScript. The SlideShow was one of the projects I had to implement. |
Pascal | Using Pascal - particularily Borland Pascal with the Object Oriented Library Turbo Vision - I became familiar with the idea of Object Oriented Programming. Before the Windows era began I used this language to program most of my applications. |
Perl & CGI | Perl and Perl CGI Programming was also part of the Internet Programming class I took. One of the most extensive programming assignment in this class was to program a POP3 e-mail Client to be used as a WebMail service. |
Visual Basic | I have been working with both VB 6.0 (Excel Macro Language) and VB .NET. In Excel I have developed entire tool sets using VB help automate tedious and/or repetitive tasks. I also used VB .NET to develop tools for the same reason. |
Operating Systems in alphabetical order |
Linux/Unix | Although the GUIs of the Windows operating systems are convenient to work with I have always appreciated Unix. It provides me with the functionality and performance I needed for my work at the AEM. |
Windows | Throughout the years I have been working with virtually every version of Windows. It all started out with the Windows 3.1 version and then Windows 95/98. I then administered and maintained the Windows NT 4.0 workstation I worked with at the IFR. My more "painful" experiences with Windows ME should be mentioned as well since I spent quite some time with it (mostly unintentionally). Right now I am mostly with Windows XP and some with Windows 2000. This includes some administrative tasks concerning the installation of software. I am also working with Windows Vista at home. |
