William Morris

Developer for a 3G mobile phone reference design - a complete mobile platform including 2G/3G telecoms stacks and all normal phone applications. The reference design is supplied to phone manufacturers as the basis for their mobile phones. Programming of the baseband chip (non-telecom) software. Design, coding, documentation, training and maintenance. Technical areas: - System bootstrap software - Interrupt handler - File-systems - NAND flash drivers - Demand paging

Porting a set of software for a graphics core IP to embedded Linux on SH4 and ARM processors. Involved investigation and debugging of a Linux kernel driver mapping the device memory into user space (amongst other things) and of related user-space libraries.

Developing a controller for a "magnetic bearing" using C on QNX6. Responsible for the following components, as well as documentation, build, and installation: - Hardware access library, for PCI and SMB I2C bus - Debug monitor - Resource manager library - Six multi-threaded resource managers controlling resources of PCI devices, SMB, trip data, trend data and other internals - Object viewer using Ncurses

Software consultant writing the control software for a Telecine (film-video transcription). The software ran on QNX4; developed and tested using Linux. System used a client-server architecture to provide services to a number of user interfaces and external devices. I designed and wrote all software. The software involved TCP/IP clients/server, QNX, ANSI C, X11/Motif

Submarine data acquisition and recording system. Design and production of complex systems consisting of three computers running Digital UNIX, five VMEbus racks each containing a 68040/VxWorks controller and many custom VME boards, and much related supporting hardware. All GUI software used X11/Motif. I was responsible for the architecture and the design of all software (coded in ANSI C).

Technology Demonstrator, investigating/prototyping a digital data-capture and recording system; demonstrated a means of sharing an operator console between the graphical user interfaces from a variety of vendors' equipment. I was responsible for all software aspects of the project (all coded in C).

My first job. I gained experience of h/w, s/w design, development and integration. Over the years I progressed to team leader of my own project - a submarine-based passive sonar demonstrator. I led a team of four engineers and was responsible for system specification, design and integration. I supervised and instructed the team and was responsible for all hardware and software aspects of the project.
