2001 - 2002: Worked as project manager for Philips Semiconductors and Adelante Technologies in DSP development. Development and verification of a DSP core and subsystem including code generation and debug tools was managed to completion under CMM. Development took place in 6 projects. Hardware design was done in VHDL and with Philips internal tools. During the process the department was spun out to an independent company (Adelante Technologies), which made it an interesting but turbulent work environment. During the spin out work continued. The team size was around 35 staff.

1. Gasunie, development and integration of graphical mapping system for the gas pipelines. > Euro 5 mill. Project was entered when severe budget overruns were imminent.

One subcontractor and several hardware suppliers were involved.
3. Rail Infra Beheer (RIB, part of Dutch Railways). An audit was conducted on the traffic control system. This system did not function as required. Development processes and techniques used were researched. Subsequently research was done on an application architecture was for applications (also non-software) for the Dutch Railways with which a unified construction method from low security level to high abstract planning level applications could be possible. A provisional concept on the basis of Bellcore OSCA was presented.
4. Scania, implementation of a logistic system for the truck factory. Acted as interim manager for the computer department responsible for the system management. The department had a shortage of competent personnel. Restructuring and reorganizing the department and indicating how to continue was successfully completed.

Worked during the indicated period as technical project manager for AKZO Systems (later AKZO Information Services) to develop and maintain several systems. These systems - described below - were used by AKZO for their clients or in their chemical plants. All systems used a variety of equipment such as electronic balances for weighing paint and telemetry devices to gather data from the plants. All systems were sized as roughly Euro 1 mill. exclusive hardware.

1. PICA was a system for gathering process data from chemical plants and was built from several modules. The modules communication, event handling and archiving (the real-time data gathering and storing modules) were designed and managed to completion. A real-time VAX with special software for data gathering was used.
2. A system for storing and retrieving the recipes for the car coatings AKZO delivered. There are roughly 20.000 different colors composed of many components. These colors need to be created in the body shops the moment a damaged car needs to be repaired. The tools that could do this consisted of a local PC, a balance and software. Acted as troubleshooting manager for the application with focus on the balance, which was supplied by a German manufacturer. The difficulties and complexities that go with a large company and a commercially very important application were challenging. Travels to Germany and the USA were frequent.
