Prime Services/Margin
Margin calculator is part of the Prime
Services offering and is written in C# and C++.
MarginCalculator is a 3-tier model of the form:
C#
ASP client -> C#, C++
Application server -> SQL server database
v Margin Calculation enhancements: Option P&L slide logic was enhanced
to provide multiple scenarios per portfolio.
Improved rounding accuracy when calculating for the most optimal hedging
scenario. Rounding errors were causing
non-optimal option hedging. Corrected
multiple issues within Margin Calculator that were due to poor programming.
Technologies: Visual Studio, VC++
v Reliability: Dramatically improved up-time, as a result support
needs were reduced. Nighttime jobs were
failing daily and required manual intervention.
After correcting these issues, management was no longer awaken every
night for failed calculations. Many
issues were the results of poor multithreaded programming and improper use of
STL collection classes.
Technologies: C#.net, VC++, COM+,
.net Framework, Windows Services, Multi-threaded
v Crystal Reports/CSV exports: Enhanced reports for
PortfolioMargin account aggregate requirements, Margin swing exception reports,
Account excess statements and Client margin statements.
v Margin Support: Provided effective and consistent technical
support. Team members were responsible
for one week of support – round robin across all team members. Support requirements took up about 5% of the
time.
Technologies: C#.net, VC++, .net
Framework
v Audit compliance: Compliance with an audit requirement was achieved by
ensuring all positions were accounted for within each account’s portfolio. Should a position be missed or have a
different quantity after calculation, an email was automatically sent to the
support team for further investigation.
Technologies: SQL server, C#, .net
Framework
v Process improvements: Automated build/install, Web/App Server
configuration utility, Visual Studio upgraded from VC6 to 2008
Technologies: Visual Studio, C#, VC++,

Secure Kiosk – v-GO SM (Session
Manager)
v-GO SM is Passlogix’s secure kiosk
product that allow users to securely access their applications without exposing
sensitive data to the wrong set of eyes.
Applications from one user are not accessible by any other user on that
computer.
v Secure Multi-User Sessions: In previous versions, any new user
would cause a logout and close other user sessions. Added the capability for v-GO SM to allow
multiple concurrent user sessions where user’s applications are hidden from one
another to ensure security.
Technologies: C#.net, C++, Named
Pipes, .net Framework, Windows Services, Multi-threaded
v Transparent screen lock: In a hospital environment, doctors and
nurses needed the ability to view a locked computer’s screen without the need
to logon to that workstation. Designed
and implemented a solution that was well under budget and completed ahead of
schedule.
Technologies: C#, C++, .net
Framework, Windows Hooks, Multi-threaded
v Localized product: Updated the product for quick localization into any
number of languages.
Technologies: C#, .net Framework
v Reliability: When I was asked to take over this project, the
application crashed frequently and intermittently. I discovered the source of the issues and was
able to increase reliability and up-time significantly.
Technologies: C#, C++, .net
Framework, Multi-threaded
v Technical Support: Provided effective and consistent technical
support. Researched and implemented
technical solutions with customers.
Technologies: C#, C++, .net

Single
Sign-on – v-GO SSO
v-GO SSO is Passlogix’s industry leading
product that provides client side logon capabilities automating all password
management tasks including logon and password change. v-GO SSO provides single sign-on to every
application including web sites, Windows applications, mainframe emulators and
Java applications without the need for these applications to call or utilize
any APIs.
v Performance enhancements: Response times for v-GO Single Sign-on were
unacceptable due to performance requirements of one second. Response times were
dramatically improved by identifying key optimization candidates using
performance monitoring tools.
Technologies: C++, ATL, MFC, COM
v Smart-card Authenticator: Designed and implemented a Smart-card
authenticator using Windows CAPI.
Technologies: C++, ATL, MFC, COM,
CAPI
v Storage Manager: Designed a multi-process data store forcing all
processes to utilize the same address space allowing the shared memory to be
distributed via a heap.
Technologies: C++, ATL, STL, COM,
Multi-threaded, Shared memory, Windows SDK
v Mainframe Helper Object: Redesigned v-GO Single Sign-On access
to mainframe applications to utilize a data-driven solution that supported a
much wider range of mainframe emulators significantly reducing the requirement
to involve developers in critical support resolution scenarios. This allowed field engineers to instantly
support new mainframe emulators.
Technologies: C++, ATL, COM,
Windows SDK
v Command prompt HLLAPI driver: Quickly designed a HLLAPI based driver
for cmd.exe to accept Single Sign-on requests.
This involved injecting a DLL into cmd.exe and utilizing the same DLL
from within three different processes.
Technologies: C++, ATL, COM,
Windows SDK, Windows Services
v Resolved frequent crashes: Added a crash handler that would report
faults and stack traces in the application and allow the application to
continue running. These stack traces
were monumental in diagnosing customer reported defects that could not be
reproduced in-house.
Technologies: C++, ATL, MFC, COM,
Windows SDK

Corporate Banking – CitiDirect
CitiDirect is Citibank’s premier corporate
banking application written in Java and C++.
CitiDirect is a 3-tier model of the form:
Java
client -> Java, C++ Application server
-> Oracle database
v Data Access Layer (DAL): This component was originally designed
to use hard coded classes to represent logical data definitions consisting of
multiple tables and a hard coded where clause.
I redesigned the component to move the data definitions to tables within
the database which allowed for more rapid development as hard coded classes no
longer need to change with each revision of the data definitions. Definitions of SQL tables were stored in DAL
tables which were used to construct SQL statements. The SQL statements included multi-table joins
with update capabilities, The DAL
component is called by Java clients through COM interfaces.
Technologies: C++, Oracle 8,
Oracle OCI, COM, Java
v Java Data Access Layer (JDAL): When Microsoft was unable to continue
supporting Java, the C++ DAL was rewritten in Java 2 using JDBC.
Technologies: Java, SQL, JDBC,
J2EE, VisualAge for Java
v Entitlements Engine: Utilizing the DAL, all database access incorporated
entitlements checking into their workflow by enabling an entitlements
flag. This significantly reduced the
programming effort required by developers on the entire project.
Technologies: Java
v Performance: Analyzed performance of server threads and
implemented changes to reduce response times.
Technologies: Java, C++, Oracle 8,
COM, MFC
v Crash/Hang analysis: Performed server-side crash/hang analysis utilizing
“Debugging Tools for Windows”.
Technologies: Java, C++, Oracle 8,
COM, MFC, Debugging Tools for Windows
