Responsible for entire project from specification through design, coding, testing, installation, staff training and ongoing support; also hiring and project management. Modeled and analyzed the design using the Z notation and the SMV model checker. The control program is coded in C and runs under the VxWorks operating system. It was developed under Unix (HP-UX) using Wind River's Tornado cross-development product. (UW) Web Services: Analyzed specifications (written in prose and XML) for proposed web services. Reported omissions, ambiguities, and inconsistencies; proposed solutions. Modeled the services in AsmL, an executable specification language. Demonstrated service behaviors in interesting scenarios by executing the models. (Modeled Computation) DICOM-RT: Produced a facility that transfers treatment beam setup information from a treatment planning system to computer-controlled radiation therapy machines over a computer network using an industry-standard protocol, DICOM-RT. The facility is coded in Common Lisp. It is now in use at University of Washington Medical Center. (UW) Foundations of Computing: Created and taught an intensive year-long introduction to computer science for undergraduates, including programming (in Scheme, awk, and Java), systems (the Linux operating system and TCP/IP networks), as well as readings and seminars on the social, economic, and human factors aspects of computing. (Evergreen) The Way of Z: Wrote a textbook on Z, a formal notation for specifying, designing and analyzing computer software and systems, now used in industry training and university software engineering courses around the world. (UW) Radiotherapy Treatment Planning Tools: Chaired National Cancer Institute task group that designed a language-independent API for radiation therapy-planning software. We specified API language bindings in C and Common Lisp. I coded the C library, built it, and ran application programs that usedit at U.W. and other NCI-funded research centers.
