Career Highlights
 Developedsoftware anddesignedthe architecture for the group
wide Application and Asset Governance Repository(NAR). The
applicationwas developedfromscratchto suit the specific needs of
the Chief Operating Office functions withinDeutsche Bank;over
time this application grew froma small applicationto manage
Applicationassets, to become the goldensource of application
governance related data globallywithinthe bank, achievedby
rapidlydeliveringnew businessrequirements.
 Developedthe Budget Allocation tool. UsingXML technologythe
project was deliveredin four weeks rather than six months
estimatedbyanother team. The front endwas generatedbyusing
a combinationof XML/XSD/XSLT, withevents inthe browser being
transmitted to the java applicationrunning onTomcat, as XML
commands/datagrams. The auto-generation ofthe screens from
templates allowedrapidchanges to be made to the front end, with
the slim java applicationon Tomcat usingOracle XSQL for
processing commands ina generic manner.
 Developeda communications bridge for LevelSeas to allow remote
users to invoke webservices via encryptedsoap messageswithin
emails. This allowedships at sea to communicate asynchronously
with the exchange over verylowbandwidth connections, withdata
encrypted/signedat allstages for security.
 The leadingedge web services technologydevelopedfor the
LevelSeas shipping exchange resulted in BEA Systems andMicrosoft
asking for presentations to their Europeanheads of development.
The exchange was demonstratedlive at the BEA ParisUser
conference withusers participatingvia their mobile devices, live
during the presentation;
