AKBAR SUHAIL SUMMARY ' Strong knowledge of HTML, CGI programming, JavaScript ' Experience in C, ESQL/C, Shell programming ' Expertise with INFORMIX database engines ' Motivated individual with excellent communication skills SKILLS Languages: C, SQL, ESQ/C, Shell programming (C, Bourne and Korn), HTML, CGI, Perl, Assembly, FORTRAN O/Systems: UNIX, Win-NT, MS-DOS, AIX, VAX/VMS, IRIS Hardware: Sun Sparc Systems, IBM's RS/6000, DEC stations SGI Indigo, NCD Xterminals, IBM compatible Personal Computers RDBMS: Informix, Oracle7 EXPERIENCE Software Engineer Creatus June 1996 - Present BUG Fix Verification Project ' Performing Bug Fix Verification and QA Test suite development for Informix online engines version 7.xx and IUS (Informix Universal Server). ' Develop 2ndGen tests in ESQL/C and Bourne Shell on Sun Sparc running Solaris 2.5. ' Install and configure Informix database engines to reproduce/verify various bug related behavior. ' Job also involves interaction with other members of the team on code review and efforts related to closure of bugs. ' Work with features such as fragmentation, GLS, onarchive, ontape and onload. BuildSite Project ' A database was designed to store information about `Products and Manufacturers. Was involved from designing the ER Diagram till populating the database with live data. The back-end database was integrated with the web to provide graphical-interface to search the database according to: Manufacturer, CSI Index, Product Type, Key Word. The Front end was done using HTML, and in order to make HTML pages communicate with the database CGI scripts were written in Perl. ' Besides this a Registration module using HTML and CGI was put in place so that users may visit the site and register, should they desire so. Once a user fills up the HTML form to register the e-mail address of the said user is piped to file so that "Mass-Mailing-To-Interested-User" can be done. ' The statistics are also being logged, that is, who is visiting the site, what browser they use, where they are coming from. The information is recorded continuously. ' Several static-html-pages were designed too, to provide information about 'company profile' 'history', 'employment' and so on. Environment: Sun Sparc, Solaris 2.5, HTML, CGI, Perl, Informix BITS Project ' Developed Bug Information Tracking System (BITS) for Creatus. It's a WWW based system, integrating INFORMIX On-line database engine with Web. ' Wrote Perl & CGI-Scripts to Query the database and create HTML pages dynamically. ' Designed and maintained the user interface forms using HTML/JavaScript. ' Wrote PERL scripts to permit free form ascii text to be stored in the database. Environment: Sun Sparc, Solaris 2.5, HTML, CGI, Perl, Informix Software Technician Symbios Logic (formerly NCR), Kansas January 1995 - May 1996 ' Used IBM RS/6000 hosts, AIX OS, and specified interface to conduct test of RAID storage devices. ' Created test scripts to verify new data movement & data storage features/functions. ' Debugged errors generated from system level tests. ' Used a robot to test SCSI, PCI and emerging IC's. ' Developed and ran tests to verify the functionality of Disk Array Controller Software. Graduate Teaching Assistant CS Dept, WSU January 1995 - May 1996 ' Taught/assisted students in lab. ' Graded assignments and tests for CS 665 (data base systems) Substitute Lecturer NED University, Pakistan January 1992 - December 1993 ' Taught classes on Logic Design & Switching Theory. Apprentice Engineer Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission May 1994 - July 1994 ' Studied the daily ongoing operation in the plant. ' Worked in Computer Department to automate different operations. PROJECTS: Webdbl Implemented "webdbl" to integrate World Wide Web with data base. This uses Web as "front-end" to provide access to a Relational data base. Made use of WebDBC (a command line application) to establish connectivity between Web and SQL database. The basic idea was to generate dynamic HTML pages whose contents were built on-fly when users queried the database. Aircraft/Airport Modeling It was an Object Oriented Database Design and Implementation project. The aircraft model at its top level captured generic structure and behavioral properties, that applied to all aircrafts. The model was structured in an inheritance hierarchy which consisted of different types of aircraft. It also featured generic classes that capture notions such as sets or queues. The project was implemented in 02 system. RAS Study, analysis & implementation of Roster Assignment System for Pakistan International Airlines. Studied the on going manual procedure to generate the Roster. Designed a database & application to automate the whole process. The system is currently used by Pakistan International Airline. 8088 based system Implemented a 8088 based stand alone system. LDS labs Designed Logic Design & Switching labs for 2nd year students. OSP Implemented process scheduling algorithm in OSP. Verified and compared the results to select the optimal algorithm.
