MAJOR PROFESSIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Accomplishments while employed by RADLEY: Without prior training or experience,
successfully designed, developed, and implemented a client server radio
frequency bar-code network which is used to collect and validate shipping data.
This collection system involves multiple scanners, collecting and transmitting
data simultaneously to the host. The host software, validates and updates host
databases, then responds appropriately to the scanner, providing real-time
validation. This data collection system has been well received in both the
Chrysler, and General Motors transmission plants in which it runs.
