At Memorex Corp. designing a "Matched Filter" for a 14" disc drive. This electrical filter was to make a pulse more symmetric and slimmer. The more symmetrical and slimmer a pulse, would help minimize the "Pattern-Induced-BitShift" (PIB). Heavy math problem! (Main LaPlace transform equation took me 22 pages of hand written notes to derive the necessary equations. Oh, those little minus signs kept giving me trouble!) Next job was at Lockheed Missiles & Space Co. Here I had different assignments. One assignment had me analyzing, what is called Digital Signal Processing (DSP), a plume from a space craft to try and label it as a "Friend or Foe". If its a Friend no problem, but a Foe may require action to be taken or it may shoot you down. This job required understanding the Fourier Transform. (FFT algorithm was being used. I switched to 10 other algorithms and partially solved the problem.) For more, see my SpectrumSolvers v. 6 app... goal-driven.net . After lay-off from Lockheed Missiles & Space Co. in 1991, 1991-Present Optimal Designs Enterprise President/Consultant Main objective is to train engineers & scientists to solve their own math problems without real programming. Most modeling, simulation & optimization problems can be solved in a page or two with the aide of a calculus-level language/compiler. Wrote a math textbook/casebook titled "Engineering Design Optimization using Calculus Level Methods: A Casebook Approach"; Created a website, goal-driven.net; and, developed four specialized software applications for the engineering community (visit my website for more): • CurvFit™ application solves fitting data to an math expression; I recommend the Lorentzian series for real world data problems. Sine & Damped Sine series are also available. • FC-Compiler™ application is a (free) Calculus-level Compiler that simplifies Tweaking parameters in ones math model. FC is based on Automatic Differentiation that simplifies computer code to an absolute minimum; i.e., a mathematical model, constraints, and the objective (function) definition. • Match-n-Freq™ solves pole/zero locations for a matched filter that is known for pulse slimming or shaping characteristics. Program determines optimal transfer function, H(s).; and, • SpectrumSolvers™ provides 13 spectral estimation algorithms for comparing Power Spectral Density (PSD) results. Algorithms include Akaike, Burg, Durbin, Maximum Likelihood Method, Mayne-Firoozan, Prony, Yule-Walker, and et al.

I'm writing another book about that experience - you can read about it here (http://bit.ly/bungsubook) My usual day-to-day job involve coaching teams and organisation around lean and agile. My clients range from banks, insurance companies and food retailers all the way to the big start ups of Sweden. And the occasional hospital.

One of my favorite quotes: "Most people are so absorbed in the contemplation of the outside world that they are unaware of what is happening in themselves." - Nikola Tesla The path of Self-Actualization is a tricky one because it demands an extensive journey at the center of our heart. It is also the most rewarding one when we succeed to set our ego in the passenger seat and to accept that we are all the sum of everything we meet. Of course, this is not an easy path, and it can get stressful and frustrating at times, especially when it comes to Business. I can't count the number of times someone told me that I was crazy to do what I am doing. However, I have discovered that when you accept it, and you keep the right mindset and good partners, it becomes the most meaningful path to live for. Technical stuff about me; - I am a self-taught Polymath who believes in the Unity of Science and Spirituality in a non-dogmatic way. I left school after several tests, but since then, I have taken many courses in different fields, and I read a lot about everything. You can engage in conversation with me about any subject, and you will find real interest from me. My mission is to find ways to empower people with technology so they can have more time to grow as a human. Yes, I can talk about cooking, high-level physics, or disruptive technology such as Blockchain, Ai with the same level of bewitchment if you are passionate about your subject. I am not an expert but I am very talented to connect the dots and build a network of like-minded persons who can help me finish the puzzle.
