The Box Worldwide is a division of MTV Networks that gives cable and broadcast providers a music video channel with customized content. Users can select a video to play by calling an automated 900 number or using The Box's web page. Computers at the broadcast sites store and decode the videos and commercials, take requests, and overlay screen graphics. I performed the following tasks to add features and improve reliability and performance of the software.

• Modified current system to support MTV's new show 'Control Freak' which was demonstrated at the NCTA Cable 2000 trade show.
• Wrote code to display animations over the MPEG playback in response to a caller's actions.
• Wrote code to stream data from remote systems to allow ACTV and BoxFusion to synchronize interactive internet content based on the video or commercial that is playing.
• Rewrote MFC DAO database derived classes to lessen stress on MS Jet 3.51 database and improve performance and reliability, and changed interface to ODBC in preparation for migration to Pervasive SQL.
• Rewrote the music video application's threading model to improve performance, reliability, and maintainability.
• Redesigned the graphics classes that use a Matrox or Targa board to overlay graphics on the MPEG playback.
• Rewrote the Digital Video Player application to add support for new Vela, Optiplex and Stradis MPEG playback boards and to improve performance, reliability, and maintainability. Added PAL support for same.
• Worked on communication program that handled connections between main site and remote systems through either a Hughes satellite or RAS connection.
• Worked on automated call software to accept 900 calls and route requests over a Hughes satellite network to remote PCs. The systems used Dialogic D/240SC-T1 cards with 23 incoming lines.
• Worked on fall-back communication system that used Dialogic D/160-LS and D/42-D cards to send small datagrams using DTMF tones
• Modified in-house software (Visual C++) as part of migration from MS SQL Server to Oracle database.
• Wrote in-house data-entry applications in Visual C++ and Oracle.

• Wrote components using IBM's VisualInfo custom document processing product to develop a paperless invoice system.
• Wrote application and components to administrate the document imaging system.

• Wrote indexing application for Lee County Florida document imaging system. The application was written in VisualAge C++, DB2/2 for OS/2, and LeadTools image manipulation library.
• Wrote data administrator programs for Oakland County Michigan document imaging system. The application was written in Visual C++ and Oracle for NT.

• Configured ThinkPad 560s with OS/2 Warp 4 at IBM CEO Gold conference in LosAngeles California, which were given to CEOs from eleven Fortune 500 companies. Components included Object Desktop, VoiceType, NetFinity, and the Internet tools InfoSage and InfoMarket.

• Consulted on Bank of Montreal call-center desktop consolidation project. The project consists of moving the applications running on an OS/2 client and a RIPL system to one OS/2 client. The RIPL system consists of BoM's Pathway branch account software and 3270 pass through sessions. The client is Footprint's Visual Banker and Early, Cloud & Company's CallPath call center software. The project is initially for the Bank ofMontreal's mbanx telebanking center.
• Performed preliminary performance analysis using SPM/2 and Theseus, to create initial hardware requirements. Actual memory requirements were a concern due to the size of the software packages, and the quick response times needed in a call center.
• Recommended changes to reduce the memory working set of both the operating system and the applications.
• Evaluated and demonstrated various desktop security and distribution packages.

• Used knowledge of OS/2 Workplace Shell internals to improve performance, reliability,and features of Stardock's desktop utility, Object Desktop. Components were developed in C with SOM as the object model, or VisualAge C++.
• Developed object classes that overrode WPFolder and WPDataFile classes and extended their features.
• Developed classes that inherited from WPDataFile and allowed archive files of various formats to behave as folders.
