Seeking employment in a challenging position in which my talents and experience as a high end software developer will be utilized to their fullest

##Michael D. Carney

I am a highly motivated principal software engineer with 14 years of experience developing highly integrated, complex software products consisting of several million lines of code, most of which was done in C++, beginning in 1988, before it had even achieved wide acceptence.

I have been a loyal employee for my entire career. Of the fourteen years of my professional life, twelve have been spent at [[LTX]] and two at [[Rational]].

##Software Patent
* USPO# : [6,418,387](http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=/netahtml/srchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=’6,418,387′.WKU.&OS=PN/6,418,387&RS=PN/6,418,387)
** **Sole inventor*
* Method of and system for generating a binary shmoo plot in N-dimensional space. This consists of an algorithm for subdividing an N-dimensional space into 2ⁿ equal subspaces, testing the extreme 2ⁿ vertices in each subspace for equivalent results, recursively continuing the process
** Reduces characterization time exponentially to O(2ⁿ ** log_2ⁿm) where:
**** n = number of dimensions
**** m = total number of points in n-dimensional space
* Allows for unlimited number of variable interactions to be characterized

##Personal Development
In an effort to keep up with trends in web-based technology, I have written the software that drives my [personal website](http://www.carneyweb.com.) This software utilizes PHP for its web page generation, while all the data for the pages is stored in an SQL database. The site includes support for web services utilizing XML-RPC to implement various APIs (for instance, the [[blogger]] and [[metaweblog]] APIs).
