Professional Experience 07/2007 – now

Schlumberger Ltd. / WesternGeco, Oslo Technology Centre, Norway

Software Engineer

I am developing software for recording and QC of a seismic acquisition data in a medium size team of 10, on a real-time system environment (a mix of SMP machines and Linux cluster). The system processes data from hundreds of thousands of sensors making the real data stream of hundreds Mb/s. The core of Recording system is written in C++ while GUIs in Java. The major technologies which are used are: multithreading, socket programming, XML parsers and some of CORBA.

Grades Silesian University of Technology The FPGA based converter of video signal to digital frames as MSc Eng Thesis I am working on a FPGA based converter of a video signal. The project consists of three boards which are intended to be separate and replaceable modules. A power board is to provide six different voltages to supply the system. An analogue board is for A/D conversion of the signal from two video cameras. Third module performs a JPEG compression of the raw data on a Xilinx Spartan 3E FPGA device using an external 1Mb SRAM as a buffer. It also contains an ARM7S microprocessor acting as a supervisor of FPGA and the A/D conversion module, and providing communication with a GPRS modem and a PC through RS-232 interface.
