Objective
To help organizations making `virtual` society, `virtual` organizations and `virtual` individuals possible.
The word `virtual` implies the most of the characteristics of the entities which are communicating and
cooperating among themselves where they are not necessarily placed in the same or close physical
locations but they are able to communicate in an artificial space (such as internet) as if they are physically
close to each other.
The help can be materialized by means of helping such organizations for improving their software (CMM)
process capabilities or participating some challenging software development projects (such as related to
human-computer interactions/interfaces) by playing such roles as designer/developer, team leader, project
manager.
I would like to work and live in North America because this is where Information (Digital) Age Revolution
takes place.
Industry Experience
Summary: I have a substantial experience in software process improvement as well as software design and
development in large projects. These projects involved multiple countries and multiple companies, and
ranged from expert systems to communication systems. My role in these projects ranged from software
developer to team manager.
