  RiverRun Software Group

  May 2000 - Jul 2000

  Software Engineering Intern

  As part of my Final Year Internship I worked on River Run AppsBuilder a pioneering product in the Mobile Industry which provided a framework for creating mobile applications targetted at multiple mobile platforms including PalmOS, Windows CE 6 and Apple Newton. My specific project was the building of a Plugin for the AppsBuilder Software. The plugin functionality had recently been added to the framework and no documentation had been created. Through my struggle with the Plugin framework we discovered some gaps which had been left which would prevent a plugin to work in production. Based on my work the plugin functionality was fixed before public release and standard Plugin development documents were created Show less
