I gather requirements by:
- Interviewing users
- Conducting focus groups
- Creating requirements documents, and
- Developing and testing prototypes.
I create functional and technical specifications and object-oriented program design for C++, Java and Flash-based Internet and non-Internet APIs and applications in fields
that have included:
- Multimedia,
- Networked healthcare,
- Teleconferencing,
- Pattern recognition, and
- Videoconferencing.
In many cases, going in, I know little about the technical, political or end-user issues
specific to the industries in which I work.
To create functional specifications that some of my clients consider "perfect",
I learned how to learn what was necessary from as many of my
client's internal and external "special interest groups" as possible as quickly as possible.
