Computer Aided System, CAS, providing tools for digital design
and manufacture prior to commercially available tools. This effort grew
into over two hundred tools for hardware and software engineers
that were used for many years on many contracts.
Modeled communications and networks using several protocols
and statistical distributions.
Lead software engineer on compiler developments for Fortran, Neliac,
Jovial and Ada compilers for embedded computers.
For the Ada compiler development the work included the tasking
and scheduling run time components.
