examination (baccalaureate) I finished the Alexandru
Ioan Cuza alias mathematics-physics no.3 secondary school. In Jully 1985 I passed the exam “Second step”(“treapta II”
so called in Romnian language terminology).
▼ 1994 - I was honored
with the pedagogical diploma from Polytechnic
University of Bucharest and the right to teach.
▼ 1995 - I finished my
first master degree in radio-communications from the Electronics and Telecommunications Department
of Polytechnic University of Bucharest

Employment history:
▼ 1995 (July-August) Radio-communications engineer at Motorola
Bucharest
▼ 1995-1998 Radio-communications engineer
at IEMI-SA Bucharest. I was assigned in
several projects regarding PCB design, documentation and product standards,
translations, electronic measurements, etc.
▼ 1998-2001 Researcher for a joint
project between Repuir
Technology A/S (as part of DentalMan International A/S) and DTU - Technical University of Denmark. My main
research was focused on modeling and software design for multilayer transient
heat flow in a 6 layers cylindrical structure. My research assignment required
physical modeling (temperature waves and heat flow), mathematical modeling,
solving partial differential equations in transient time and in 3D, advanced DSP (digital signal processing) of the analytical
solutions, software design and OOP (object oriented programming), software
testing, implementations, error checking, optimization for a 100 KB
microprocessor memory without floating point operations facilities, etc.

assembler, a special C code for microprocessor.
▼ 2001 2006 several concurrent part-time jobs including
programming (for Danish Dictionary at Progresso A/S Company from Denmark, supervisor
BO), instructor (ITU) regarding making homepages, paper delivery, cleaning
service, and standby computer games programmer (Pollux Gamelabs December 2005 - March
2006).
▼ September 2006 November 2006 Standby Radio-communications
engineer at IEMI-SA Bucharest.
▼ November 2006 – March 2007 engineer at SWS International

Master Theses:
1
Subject MSc radio-communication: Radio-receiver synthesis (finished in July
1995)
Specification: Design of a heterodyne AM/ Digital PLL FM synthesis
radio in the band 100 kHz -100 MHz having 3 intermediate frequencies for AM.
The design work included also the modulation / demodulation part, RF filtering block, RF amplifier
and the antenna. The project was performed individual.
2
Subject MSc medical electronics: “Analogue to digital filter
conversion using one to one correspondence between the analogue components and
digital ones.” (Finished in September 1998)
Specification: Research for finding a mathematical bijective
function able to make the conversion. After gathering different solutions the
optimal one was chosen. Finally I made software developed and designed in Matlab which generated Symulink
blocks and created Schematic interface design in both domains: analogue and
digital. The project was a TEMPUS mobility funded by European Union and
conducted at Technical University of Denmark under the supervision of Signal
Processing team. The project was performed individual.
3
Subject MSc in multimedia technology: “Making expression in
natural synthetic speech with Java Speech API Markup Language” (finished
in December 2005)
Specification: Testing and developing in Model Talker and Mbrola
of different synthetic natural voices, compiling the open source software:
Festival and Flinger for Linux towards the windows platform. Development of
Flinger and Festival for networking and client-server applications, compelling
Flinger and Festival to exchange data and use voices from Cloudgarden
and other TTS applications, software development in Java for generating MIDI
file and adding lyrics in the MIDI file using Jfuge
and Java sound, integrating several TTS and music applications to work together
under various operating systems platforms using networking and client-server
communication protocols, integration with mark-up languages like JSML, artificial intelligence, and like.
●
