In
recent years, my work has required the, almost, full time use of a personal
computer. This has come about from the following:
q Advancing technology bringing
telecommunications and computers together.
q My job
advancements into supervision.
q My
work requiring database administration and C/C++ programming (DOS and
Windows).
q Wide
use of the LAN/WAN environment for the transfer of information in our
company.
q Introduction of support systems to improve
the operation of faults and configuration in the Telecom Network. Recently
this has included the
development of an email fault queuing system.
q Considerable Visual Basic for Applications
(VBA) programming in MS Access 2003/XP and Excel 97~XP.
q Considerable programming experience in ASP
programming, developing and supporting online database systems.
q VB6
and dot.NET developments.
q Project involvement in the remote support of
IP Networks, including Routers, Switches, DSL, ASAM, ATM. A significant part
of this work is
based around implementation of Documentation systems, Process improvement and
implementing a new Preplan system, and associated improvements.
q Operational lead of a VoIP Network meant
learning about the Voice and IP convergence, Softswitch, Session Border
Controllers, TGW’s

These
requirements, plus my own personal interests, have aided my development and
knowledge of computer hardware and software.
