I am a lecturer. I have been teaching software development since 2007. During my teaching career, I have been teaching the following courses:

• Object-Oriented Programming
• .NET Application Development
• Web Application Development
• Introduction to Software Engineering
• Software Construction
• Software Configuration Management
• Software Architecture
• Software Project Management
• Software Engineering Capstone
• Cloud Computing (Graduate Course)
• Distributed Systems (Graduate Course)

I’m interested in philosophy, psychology, history, economics, movies, literature, music, and software engineering research.

I hold a PhD degree in Computer Science. My main research areas are

• Software design, software architecture, software design patterns, multi-tenant architecture for enterprise systems;
• Software process, software project management for managing enterprise software development projects;
• Data structures, algorithms, programming languages and frameworks for engineering desktop, web, mobile, cloud-based enterprise software and games;
• Machine learning algorithms and deep learning architectures for building natural language processing and computer vision systems.

I am a practical person. I advocate learning and researching by doing. I have been developing software since 2000, working in various industry projects as a Software Engineer, a Team Leader, a Project Manager,  a Technical Architect, and a Solution Architect. I designed several successful commercial multi-tenancy enterprise systems.

My experience includes

• Eliciting project ideas, identifying project scope, estimating and controlling project size, cost, duration and risks, developing prototypes and proof of concepts, managing software development and improving software development processes;
• Evaluating and proposing architectures and technologies for enterprise software systems and multi-tenancy software systems;
• Developing enterprise software systems and their ecosystem (i.e. services, desktop clients, mobile clients, web applications, specific add-ons, 3rd party and legacy systems integration) using
  – C, C++, Windows API, C++ Builder, Cocos2d-x;
  – Objective C, Swift, iOS SDK;
  – Java, Android SDK, AndEngine;
  – HTML, JavaScript, CSS, C#, .NET Framework, Windows Forms, ASP.NET Web Forms, ASP.NET MVC, Windows Communication Foundation, ADO.NET, NHibernate, Entity Framework, Microsoft SQL Server, SQL Server Reporting Services, Oracle, DotNetNuke, Kentico, Amazon Web Services, Okta;
  – PHP, MySQL, Drupal, WordPress;
  – Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL;
  – R and R packages; and
  – Apex, Salesforce, and Lightning Component Framework.
• Applying natural language processing and computer vision to enhance existing software systems using
  – Python, TensorFlow, Keras, scikit-learn,
  – OpenCV, Deep Speech, and Tacotron.

I welcome and appreciate any feedback and suggestions for this website. My short term strategy is to document some of my experiences for reference and to create a full, concrete and easy process for high school students and absolute beginners to learn to develop software.

My long term strategy is to make a place for a small group of people to discuss about software engineering, software engineering education and training, software engineering research, and share their experiences.
