  and Photoshop. This was performed on SGI and PC based platforms. The 3D graphics visually communicated information that historically would be represented in spreadsheet format. This assisted commanders with no formal operational research background to make informed decisions.\n\n- Created a multilayered network using Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) that allowed server/client communication between geographical database servers and many modeling & simulation tools

  specifically JCATS. I configured and maintained samba and LDAP services

  which leveraged into existing active directory structure to include authentication within the existing windows based domains.
