    Engineering development of the MVS/NFS product joint with Sun Microsystems. This development allowed IBM mainframe information to be accessed by Sun's NFS which enhanced the ability of information sharing on distributed networks. Sun pioneered the idea that,"The Network is the Computer", which allowed the internet to grow and become more useful.In a later assignment I was the Subject Matter Expert to develop a course that allowed General Motors Corporation employees to understand the opportunity to move ahead from a mainframe centric mentality. I taught the course at General Motors locations in various parts of the world.
