The above common interface varied from customer to customer and could be wireless, Internet or simple coms, all of which had to be developed and designed in.
Had to build several add in modules such as GPS, and radio time synchronization.
Upper level application was structured around SQL database.

1994 - 1995
WebPhone
Software Engineer
This was a new application consisting of a handset with a smartcard reader built in. The idea being that the user could use the Internet (TCP/IP) to communicate with other users via the handset and make purchases online using the smartcard reader.
This was new technology for its time and we had to design the smart card interface and security protocols from scratch ? Microsoft now uses this package for their current smartcard development kit.
After this position I was headhunted by De le Rue (credit card makers) to head a new design team for smartcard design onto credit cards.
Main languages ? C++ and assembler.
Main OS?s ? Windows

Design and implementation of hardware interfaces and control circuits.
Had to write a terminal program for the company using RS232 protocol, used for talking to hardware drivers via DigiBoard (talking to up to 32 COM ports at the same time), and PC to PC i.e.. Master to slave (terminal program is now shipped with all systems world wide).
1987 - 1991
University
Mature Student
Degree Course, consisting of 1/3 software engineering (using ADA, C/C++ & assembler) 1/3 electronics, 1/3 management.
Final year project: Hospital Blood Bank (used by Mid Glamorgan haematology department).A local hospital required a means of monitoring blood transactions within the haematology department. Their main interests, were reliability (due to earlier systems failing!), and ease of use (due to non computer literate employees).Design and implementation of the project was left to myself. For ease of use, I used a GUI, which was controlled via a 'touch sensitive screen', and bar code reader (hence no keyboard skills required).The logging of all transactions i.e.. Logging of personnel, removing, returning and addition of blood bags was achieved via the use barcodes. The main database section of the program was designed on the relational database approach, each entity and relation represented by an object in the C++ language.The software was written to run on a PC, and was written in Borland C++, with assembler code to control the barcode reader and touch sensitive screen (TSR program, monitoring COM port).Real time features were employed for the security of the system, and monitoring of blood temperature
