EXPERIENCE

 

5/00 ~ 3/02: Senior Software Engineer at Desana Systems, Inc., Milpitas, CA.  Lead Desana’s traffic management / server load balance software effort for a high-performance service-aware switch.  Wrote the entire traffic management software, from conception through requirements specification, design, implementation, testing, bring-up and lab integration, coordinating closely with hardware, marketing, QA and other software module teams through the entire product cycle.  Also executing performance engineering to maximize throughput of the software proxy module.

 

4/99 ~ 4/00: Member of Research Staff at Interval Research Corp., Palo Alto, CA.  Worked on real-time implementation of a very low-cost wavelet-based video codec on a multimedia processor (using Equator's MAP1000, previous experience w/ Philips' TriMedia); developed Huffman coefficients suitable for the algorithm.  Created graphical interface for non realtime version and improved execution speed.  Wrote various video manipulation utilities in Matlab and C/C++.

 

10/94 ~ 3/99: Senior Engineer at Raytheon Systems Company (formerly Hughes Aircraft Co.) Sensors and Electronic Systems, El Segundo, CA.  Radar mode leader on detection of ground moving targets.  Responsible for coordinating on-time delivery of all phases of mode development, including requirements, traceability, test plans.  Created simulation in C, using Matlab to provide GUI interface, for validation of algorithms.  This simulation eventually evolved into a data analysis tool.  Previously, performed algorithm development and validation (Matlab, C, Fortran) for a radar mode where complex correlation from two images of the same ground area is used to provide detailed change, elevation and/or terrain information.  Applied Domain Engineering on an R&D pilot project to establish a reuse process to be integrated with lab software development process.  Used Dynamic Object Oriented Requirements System (DOORS) and wrote supplemental utilities in the DOORS eXtension Language (DXL) to capture commonalities and variabilities in architecture and requirements among three similar modes.  Designed, implemented and integrated real-time software for airborne radar processing (in Jovial and an in-house pipe-lined signal processing language).

 

6/92 ~ 9/94: Research Intern at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories (HPL), Palo Alto, CA.  Performed extensive simulation and programming in Matlab/SIMULINK and C for a joint project with Stanford as part of my thesis research (see Education section below).  Programmed in Basic and assembly language as part of the interface to the physical system. Began joint project as a SEED (Student Employment and Educational Development) student, recommended to HPL by my Ph.D. thesis advisor.  Among first six students promoted into the HPL Research Intern program when it was initiated in March, 1993.

 

Fall quarter, 92: Teaching Assistant for Bipolar Analogue Integrated Circuits course, taught by Prof. B. Wooley.  Stanford University, Dept. of Electrical Engineering.

 

Summer, 90: Graduate Student Co-op in Command & Control Group at Ford Aerospace Corporation, San Jose, CA.  Assisted in the design of a two-axis control system for an antenna gimbal.  Also programmed the control unit for an antenna alarm status display.

 

Summer, 88: SEED (Student Employment and Educational Development) program participant at Hewlett-Packard, Fort Collins, CO.  Wrote assembly language code for the verification of a floating-point processor.  Enhanced the model translator for automatic assertion generation. Redesigned a CMOS latching bus driver circuit to eliminate a drive fight with minimal increase in delay.

 

Summer, 86 ~ 2/88: UROP (Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program) participant at MIT Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, Cambridge, MA.  Assisted in building autonomous mobile robots under the supervision of Prof. Rodney Brooks.  Designed, built and debugged digital and analog circuits.  Programmed robot functionalities using LISP and assembly language.

 

EDUCATION

 

Ph.D.   Stanford University, Electrical Engineering, 6/95. Thesis title: “Modeling and Adaptive Control of Time-varying Friction in A Small Disk Drive.”  Advisor: Prof. Gene Franklin.  Thesis research was a joint project as a research intern with Hewlett-Packard Laboratories.  Objectives: characterize the form of a frictional nonlinearity in an electro-mechanical system, namely a small disk drive, investigate compensation methods, apply the compensation schemes to the actual system, and perform a comparative study of the control strategies.  Due to the time-varying nature of the system, controllers considered were adaptive.

 

M.S.  Stanford University, Electrical Engineering, 6/91.  Field of concentration: control systems.

 

B.S.  Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Electrical Engineering, 6/89.  Thesis topic: ``Einswine, a Beacon-Stealing Autonomous Mobile Robot.''  Advisor: Prof. Rodney A. Brooks.
