management software framework for management of heterogeneous data and voice networks. Work
involved transitioning existing configuration framework to the JBoss J2EE application server.
 Created web-based configuration console using Tomcat, JSF and MyFaces.
 Designed and coded configuration services including: off-line configuration templates, backup and
restore, data and voice statistics gathering, and bulk provisioning and configuration wizards.
 Performed Jboss application server tuning and trimming, including: custom configuration for RMI
over https, securing all remote interfaces, minimizing number of open socket ports, custom security
domain and login chain.
 Designed and prototyped data access objects (DAO) including use of hibernate persistence layer.
 Created a general purpose scheduling service Mbean to be used in document centric architecture.
Scheduler allowed web-services based scheduling functionality in a language neutral environment.
 Invented and submitted patent application for dynamic device adapter framework allowing
configuration software to automatically update device adapter layer based on device version.
 Developed a Java based client using Swing.
