    Initially joined when we were Hewlett-Packard, doing embedded development under PSOS on M68020-based custom hardware for the Sonos line of ultrasound systems. I worked in C and 68k assembler. Since about 2003, I've been working on a post-acquisition image processing tool, called QLAB, which helps Doctors produce quantitative results from their ultrasound images. QLAB is a Windows application built around a COM architecture. It is written mostly in C++, but I've also done some hand optimization using Intel P4/SSE2 assembler code and intrinsics. Recently, we've started doing more .NET/WPF/XAML, so I'm working on those now. I've also been working more on mobile technologies: mostly iPad, but looking at Android and Windows Phone as well.
