Jan 1973 - Present
Of Celtic origin and benefiting from having good Parents - in 1960 my first year at University in Ireland I discovered Computing and London - Military and Business experience helped and 50+ years of IT have given me interesting times. I gained international experience in various countries and companies. My first Software company (Filetab & RPL) was in 1973 with a Report Generator in range of organisations. Married 1973 - happy times - then Divorce 1991 - Parental alienation - Family torn apart- a long l process of Recovery, Reconstruction and Re-connection. A creative Daughter and a very capable Son - in 2020 talented Adults leading interesting lives. I am fortunate to be involved with a lovingly creative lady Partner who brings much to my Personal and Professional life. During the 1980s, our company RapidGen helped Users develop and then migrate and modernise their Legacy applications. During the 1990s, I lost control of the company. However in 2006, having recovered all of the Software IP Rights and company Shares, RapidGen Software was re-launched and re-energised. RapidGen specializes in Decision Management Software, particularly with a powerful Execution Engine for Decision Model & Notation (DMN). Our extensive history in high performance production environments and long term client base provide the basis of our specialist expertise in complex decision logic. Based in London England, we operate internationally and provide a 24/7 Support Service. We are well placed to expand our software Products and Services, Come the 2020s, our company are enthusiastically engaged in helping both Legacy Users and New Entrants to have agile and active ICT Systems. Although Government regulations and Society oversights rightfully have to be taken into account, the focus of our company is helping technology enhance lives and societies. Human oversight for AI and Digital decisioning needed even more in the 2020s Show less
