Built a suite of apps to handle the database for this web-site Using DevExpress, VirtualTrees, XML and ElevateEB as database. Work was done in Delphi 2010, later switched to Delphi XE.

Major task was: take a dead-end-never-released old application developed with TurboPower components and B-Tree, and upgrade it to a modern interface based on DevExpress, LMD Tools, VirtualTrees, XML and using DBISAM as database. Application was out in beta in about a year and first edition released 6 months later. Work was done in Delphi 2007.Using from Delphi 5 to 2007, CodeSafeWeb, Visual SourceSafe, Developer Express, Indy, VirtualTrees, XML, XMLPro, Abbrevia, Orpheus, Essentials, LMD Tools 2007.

• Maintained a bunch of old apps, wrote new components, optimized code, fixed bugs.

• Wrote a bunch of utilities for internal use.

• Wrote new apps

My initial task was to take ownership of a Delphi 5 application, update its UI with new controls and move it to Delphi 7. Later on, many new features were added, bugs were fixed and the application became part of the "IntelliVIEW Suite". More info here. My colleagues were located around the world: India, UK, US, Russia, Bulgaria.Upgrading and maintaining Delphi applications. Writing components.

• Using of Delphi 5-9, Vault, Visual SourceSafe, DevEx Quantum grid, FastReport, Indy, TBX, Decision Cube, TeeChartPro, TMS, VCLZip, VirtualTrees, ReportBuilder, XML, XMLPro, ZLIB...

• Enhanced UI, improved components, optimized code, fixed bugs.

At ICG I was working with a team of 5-6 other developers to maintain a suite of applications, in essence a cost recovery system (monitor and measure costs associated with phone calls, printing, copying, scanning and faxing). Many reports could be created and run using the data collected by the software. Practically existing customers always wanted new reports, and we either added new reports to the applications or we made them possible to be created on site by the customers themselves. Maintaining object-oriented, multithreaded applications, writing Delphi components, experts, DLLs.

• Using of FlashFiler, Report Builder, Abbrevia, Orpheus, Winshoes, SysTools, AsyncPro, Sleuth QA, Indy, Visual SouceSafe, etc.

• Enhancing reports, improving components, optimizing code, fixing bugs.

• Developed object-oriented applications, Delphi components, DLLs, experts, NT services. Tools used: B-Tree, Orpheus.
• Printing of various real estate, governmental forms from within Delphi applications, using EZ Print
• Wrote installation programs for released software.
• Debugging - recreating steps taken by user to locate source of problem and modify code to correct errors.
• Wrote Paradox based application to record and keep track of released software and version upgrades.
• Wrote application for automatic files upgrade in our network environment.

• Designed and implemented of new application software systems (accounting, payroll), using Turbo Pascal 6.0, Borland Pascal 7.0 for Windows.
• Developed user interface (input data dialogs, printer settings using Turbo Vision, OWL, API);
• Programmed specifications to meet user requirements.
• Replaced redundant PDP software systems (accounting, payroll) with new applications for PC environment, using Borland Pascal.

• Provided changes from user specifications using Pascal, COBOL, Fortran.
• Maintenance through utility runs, managing resources, devices, back-ups.
• Operated PDP system (with team) to handle 5000 employees payroll system.

• Software applications for students, using Pascal and Fortran.

• Programming in COBOL and Fortran using PDP system, RSX/11M.

• Programming in Pascal using PC environment, MS-DOS.
