Joseph Chiu,
B.S., E&AS 1995. Born: 1971-Jan-05, Tokyo, Japan
As an undergrad at Caltech, I built electronic 'toys' (mostly embedded projects) that were loads of fun, and earned me credits toward my degree. I hope to do more 'toy building' in the coming years, for fun and profit...

California Institute of Technology (Caltech) Homepage.
I received my B.S. in Engineering and Applied Sciences here. I'm now back at Caltech as a systems manager and (hopefully) to get a MS degree.
TenFold Corporation.
I worked for TenFold (formerly KeyTex) between August 1996 and November 1998. Lots of really smart people work there.
My Code 39 and Interleaved 2 of 5 barcode decoder for the PC.
It decodes (
i.e.,
reads) the barcodes! (Current version 0.20.)

Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) Homepage.
I worked on infrared imaging of Dead Sea Scroll fragments there several summers ago.

An
excellent
source of barcode information.
APCircuits
is an inexpensive, reliable, and
FAST!
(24 hrs) way to get electronic prototypes made. Highly recommended.
Timeline electronics
is a great source of LCD and other surplus electronics. You can get the barcode wand needed for the software decoder from them. Tell them 'hi' for me!
The Computer Engineer Quick Test
- These questions help separate the engineer from the users.
My System Administration ideas
Magic 1/8's
for the allocation of disk spaces. A very simple but useful concept. (Not a difficult concept, actually, but it did take me a while to realize how useful it is.)

Ever noticed the IBM ThinkPad laptop ads where a cowboy has a laptop in his saddlebag?
What cow boy would need a laptop?
I wondered. Well,
here's the answer.
