• Provided application support Level 2 for IBM ADSM .
• Performed investigation of software incidents in C/C++ code.
• Worked in Belarus-Germany team.
• ADSM is multi-platform DOS, OS/2, Windows NT, AIX client-server reliable backup-archive application for large data sets.

• Developed embedded system for high power electromotor protection. It included Microchip PIC 17C756 micro-controller, RS-232 ESD protected interface and Microchip serial EEPROM for storing user specified constants.
• Embedded software performed real-time tracing of 6 analog input channels, time-dependent turn off control.
• Firmware code was implemented in Microchip assembler.
• About 200 devices have been deployed.

• Developed a data acquisition system for an electrical network model. This model was used in the university teaching labs.
• Project highlights: The system was implemented with 2 Microchip PIC16F84 micro-controllers. The software part of the project consisted of an embedded program and a Windows 95 interface program written with Borland C++ 4.5 and OWL. The embedded program was written in SIL, a specialized high-level language for Microchip microprocessors.

Developed a digital controller for a handheld medical laser. The controller provided timing and switching functions for the semiconductor laser. It included Microchip PIC16C74 micro-controller and serial EEPROM chip. The embedded code was written in Microchip assembler.

• Applied Xilinx programmable logic technology in several projects.
• Developed a preliminary image-processing unit for a television coordinator. The project was based on Xilinx FPGA and Texas Instruments DSP TMS320C80 technology. The coordinator was used for tracking moving objects. Completed software modeling and hardware implementation of algorithms for digital image rotation.
• Project highlights: 15-MHz digital input stream, arbitrary angle of rotation.
• Used tools and devices: Xilinx chips XC4013E, Foundation series AldecCAD v1.2, XACTstep 6.1 software, TMS320C80 evaluation board and TI C compiler.
• The rotator module was prototyped on Texas Instruments TMS320C80 evaluation board with the help of a specialized C compiler. Worked with development tools for the TMS320C80 processor.
• Developed Sobel image processor unit and a 5x5 symmetrical core image convolver unit for HDTV television coordinator.
• Project highlights: the Sobel processor was used to highlight edges on the image, and the convolver was used to remove high frequency noise; Coefficients were dynamically loaded into the convolver; both units accepted HDTV digital data stream 75 MHz x 8 bit .
• Used tools and devices: Xilinx chips XC4010E, OrCAD SDT and VST 386+, XACT v. 5.2, Borland C++ v. 4.5.

Electronic Engineer Developed a model of hydro-mechanical transmission for heavy trucks. Used tools and devices: Octagon MicroPC controller, CAM BASIC industrial BASIC .
