_Asif_

Product Manager Avanza Solutions

Pakistan

Asif embarked on his programming journey back in 1991 when he first encountered 80286 8-16 MHz systems. His programming repertoire began with dBase III+, FoxPro, C, and assembly language, where he honed exceptional skills that have been a cornerstone of his development career.

Over the years, Asif's programming saga has seen him delve into a wide array of technologies and languages, ranging from C++, VC++, Java, Delphi, RPG400, SQL Server, and Oracle, to name just a few. His insatiable curiosity continues to lead him towards newer horizons, such as DOT Net Technologies, SOA architectures, BI, DSL, and beyond. These learning experiences are underscored by a robust theoretical foundation, with a penchant for research.

Beyond the realm of technology, Asif's interests include delving into the pages of fiction, exploring biotechnology, and gazing at the wonders of Astronomy. He finds joy in watching movies, and during his free time, he delights in quality moments spent with his children.

Dennis E White

Software Developer

United States

I am software developer with over 20 years of professional experience. I have been employed as a software developer since the early 90′s back when Microsoft’s Windows 3.1x was gaining popularity and IBM’s OS/2 was the predominant leader in 32-bit PC based Operating Systems.

Prior to choosing this as my profession I had studied architecture and then later Electrical and Mechanical engineering in college. As a young kid growing up I always played with computers, my first computer was a TRS-80 that I would spend countless hours writing programs for, I never really thought of programming as a profession. The story goes that in my final year of college I took a C/C++ programming class and had so much fun working on the various projects that my professor told me something that changed everything.

gggustafson

Software Developer (Senior)

United States

In 1964, I was in the US Coast Guard when I wrote my first program. It was written in RPG (note no suffixing numbers). Programs and data were entered using punched cards. Turnaround was about 3 hours. So much for the "good old days!"

In 1970, when assigned to Washington DC, I started my MS in Mechanical Engineering. I specialized in Transportation. Untold hours in statistical theory and practice were required, forcing me to use the university computer and learn the FORTRAN language, still using punched cards!

In 1973, I was employed by the Norfolk VA Police Department as a crime analyst for the High Intensity Target program. There, I was still using punched cards!

In 1973, I joined Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC). There, for the first time, I was introduced to a terminal with the ability to edit, compile, link, and test my programs on-line. CSC also gave me the opportunity to discuss technical issues with some of the brightest minds I've encountered during my career.

In 1975, I moved to San Diego to head up an IR&D project, BIODAB. I returned to school (UCSD) and took up Software Engineering at the graduate level. After BIODAB, I headed up a team that fixed a stalled project. I then headed up one of the two most satisfying projects of my career, the Automated Flight Operations Center at Ft. Irwin, CA.

I left Anteon Corporation (the successor to CSC on a major contract) and moved to Pensacola, FL. For a small company I built their firewall, given free to the company's customers. An opportunity to build an air traffic controller trainer arose. This was the other most satisfying project of my career.

Today, I consider myself capable.
