                 Assisting the Laboratory of Mathematical Biology by working on the 
               development of an integrated client-server, message passing, RNA structure 
               analysis workbench, STRUCTURELAB, in the heterogeneous LAN environment 
               including SUN, SGI, and DEC workstations, as well as mainframes such as CONVEX, 
               CRAY (Unix, Ultrix, Unicos) and Vax (VMS), and a MasPar MP-2 massively parallel 
               SIMD computer.  Constantly expanding and adjusting the system to the changing 
               FBSC hardware.
                 Analyzing end user needs for new tools and desired interfaces, interacting 
               with other automation professionals to best incorporate existing software into 
               the system, and programming the solutions.
                 Developing new methodology for RNA secondary structure data visualization,
               phylogenetic analysis, and common structural motif elucidation.
                 Exploring use of an object-oriented database system as part of the system 
               and the best path for moving STRUCTURELAB to the WWW paradigm.  
                 Serving expanding user base and maintaining and debugging the system 
               on a variety of machines at the FBSC.
                 Preparing system demos, presentations, and co-authoring publication
               describing STRUCTURELAB.
                 Assisting in research projects with local and remote collaborators.
