Professional Biography

My first job in "data processing" in Brasil was in 1973, at a refrigerator manufacturer; there was a Burroughs 1400 minicomputer and the language we used was Cobol. I had my first contact with databases. Then, in 1974, I worked for the São Paulo Metrô, the first Brazilian rapid transit system. We had a IBM mainframe and I programmed in Fortran a railway centerline coordinate calculation application using the clothoid curve as transition element. In 1975 I went to Brasília (the capital) to work for Eletronorte (Northern Power Plants); again IBM mainframe in Fortran, where my duty was to support development and maintenance of electrical applications. There I had the chance to alter the IBM monopoly position, but I failed. In 1984 I worked for Fujitsu Ltd. as support manager for online databases in Vitória, ES, for a steel plant. In 1996 I graduate master in computer science in Logan, UT, USA. That is when I joined the GNU/Linux mindshare. Worked for Digitran, a simulator manufacturer, where I put together open-source applications to solve a serious product software problem. In 2000, I went to Visionary Products in Draper, UT, where I learned LAMP programming, which I applied in an small business application for a Taylorsville, UT site of which I was a partner. Since 2006 I have been back to Brasil. Currently I am learning about various OSs running under VMWare, and accompanying the advances of open-source software.
