Software Engineer

• Designed hardware devices for software protection. These devices connected to the keyboard, serial ports, or parallel ports, each device has a non-volatile memory for storing information of the protected software.
• Designed/developed a utility to allow the software vendor to manipulate the data in the devices.
• Designed/developed a utility, similar to virus, to wrap the protected software such that the new executable codes can verify the authorization information stored in the device when they are executed.
• Designed/developed an Intelligent Uninterrupted Power System. This system worked with UPS to shutdown computers before the UPS run out of power when power failure occurred. The UPS has an interface connected to a serial port of an IBM PC; it will send a signal to the PC when power failed.
