| Bachelor of Technology Degree in Information Technology & Telecommunications. |
|---|
| This course was created at the University of Limerick 4 years ago
because of the growing need of IT capable graduates with a strong
understanding of all types of IT and Telecommunications in software
and hardware. Briefly we have studied areas such as modulation schemes, compression, Networks Protocols (ISDN, TCP/IP), Operating Systems ( UNIX, DOS/Windows etc), Languages (Modula-2, C), Modem technology, Database systems and much more.. A compete Transcript is availale from the Offical College W3 server. The elective I am choosing for Semester 8, my last semester is Advanced Graphics & Display systems. |

| Operating System | Hardware Platfrom | Level of Experience |
|---|---|---|
| Unix (Linux, Solaris & Ultrix) | Intel x86, Sun SPARC, DECstation | High, including installation of OS, programming & configuration |
| Win95, 3.1, DOS | Intel x86 (what else !?) | As above and also used high-end machine for Multimedia Development, included Motion JPEG cards, Audio, 3D graphics etc. |
| MacOS (System 7.0+) | m680x0, PowerPC | High, Multimedia Development & 3D authoring |
| WorkBench, AmigaOS | m680x0 | Very High, Programming, setting up as W3 Server, 3D programming, General C & REXX programming. TCP/IP networking etc. Development of Multimedia Applications & Video Titling. |
| Language | Level of Experience |
|---|---|
| C | High, I have been using C for 5 or 6 years and my final year project will be mostly written in C. |
| Java | Basic Knowledge |
| REXX | High, used in Amiga & OS/2 environments |
| Shell script | Basic Unix csh/tsch/sh Knowledge |
| Title | Level of Experience | |
|---|---|---|
| Multimedia ToolBook 3.0 | I used this MM authoring package for 8 months while on work experience in WiSO, Germany. The project consisted of a Computer Based Training Program on Neural Networks. I programmed in the OpenScript langauge included in the Package, including a Back Propagation Neural Network. | |
| Adobe Photoshop 3.0 Premiere | I used Photoshop to create almost all of the graphics in the above project. It is usually my first choice for creating graphics for MM or W3 pages. | |
| Autodesk 3D Studio | This again was used in the above project, usually for
visualising the error space of Neural Networks. Some animations are
available, but you must have a viewer capable of viewing FLICs. Note that
the sizes range from 150K to 2.5 Megabytes. I also used 3D studio to create animations for Company logos and experimenation. Some of the VRML work I have done was modelled in 3D studio. I hope to some examples on line soon. |
|
| NewTek Lightwave | I have novice experience with this package, I use it mostly for animation and VRML authoring. The Skynet logo was created by me about 2 years ago. (I have got better since then - honest..) | |
| HTTP / W3 server software | I have extensive experience setting up HTTP/W3
servers on almost every platform e.g. Sun SPARC, Digital DECstation,
Linux x86, Windows, Amiga. I am co-Webadm on this Linux W3 server Skynet. I setup and helped design Multimedia Technologies Irelands Webserver. I have familiarity with NCSA, CERN & Apache type servers(i.e. 95%). Most of my W3 work is concerned with Common Gateway Interface (CGI) binaries, i.e. search engines, guestbooks e.g. MTIs Guestbook, VRML generators e.g. Cyberclock , frontends to Neural Networks etc. I write these programs in C. Want one done quickly?Mail me!. |
|
| TCP/IP & other protocols | As implied by above I have quite a lot of
experience with TCP/IP networking & configuration on all major platforms.
I am also familiar with Lan Manager & NetBios protocols as used by
Windows etc.
I have some simple TCP/IP programming experience under UNIX/C (BSD scokets etc.) Part of my course work involved networks & protocols including ISDN, ATM, ethernet, token ring, token bus and such concepts as the 7 OSI layers, compression, multiplexing etc. The complete course structure is available. |

Campus TV I was chairman of Campus TV from 1993-1995. Campus TV is a society in the University of Limerick for people interested in all aspects of Video production. We also provide services to other Societies & clubs in that we will record & edit/archive events for them. Occasionally we are involved in commericially recording events or making advertisements. However this is only to supplement our budget and is not the main aim of the society. Skills I have aquired by working with this society include:
