Center for Natural Language Processing, Syracuse University
Lead a team of software engineers in various government and commercial projects, in order to build natural language processing (NLP) based information access solutions for clients. Lead the design and implementation of a rule based NLP Information Extraction system, TextTagger™, that many of CNLP's applications depend on. Designed and lead development on various Question Answering, Information Retrieval and Visualization Systems. Implemented software development processes that lead the CNLP to turn research into technology products. Participated in writing grant proposals to government and commercial entities. Oversaw and reviewed technical activities conducted by engineers. Technical writing for internal and external software process documentation. Technical interaction with clients.
• Designed and lead development on eQuery Information Extraction, Information access system.
• Designed and developed LiVIA (Linguistic and Visual
Information Access) 2-stage information retrieval system with Natural Language query interface,
and visual summarization of results. (livia.equery.org)
• Designed and lead development on Question Answering Module for a toolkit to provide CRM solutions
for Fortune-500 companies.
• Designed and lead development KAAS: Question Answering system used by Engineering students on
collaborative projects.
Syracuse Language Systems, Syracuse, NY

Web servers look for the User Agent header information in the request headers.If you like your java application to be seen as a specific browser by the web server you need to set the correct User Agent header information.
