Professional Experience
Responsible for all management and program operations of this information and computer communications organization. Mr. Williams has been recognized as a leader in implementing open system solutions and internet security. Mr. Williams' projectsand technological initiatives have been featured in government and private industry technology forums. Mr. Williams has been quoted in the industry press. In addition, Mr. Williams is consulted by leading industry market research firms to determine major industry trends.
Mr. Williams has intimate knowledgeconcerning the implementation and integration of Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) technology. OSI is a set of internationally recognized, vendor independent communications standards. Mr. Williams has over 10 years of experience concerning the development, dynamics and implementation of the Internet Protocol Suite (IPS).
Within the OIW, Mr. Williams is intimately involved with the development of profiles and protocol implementation conformance statements (used internationally for procurement and standardization) specifically concerning the convergence of IPS and OSI technologies, Mr. Williams is uniquely qualified to plan and implement solutions involving OSI, GOSIP, and IGOSS-D, IPS and POSIT technology.
Mr. Williams' philosophy is that the IPS and GOSIP/OSI protocols suites will coexist into the near future and eventually converge into a common set of protocols. Various standards organizations involved in the standards process hold discussions on how these protocols can converge. Mr. Williams is consulted for these discussions and believes discussions should continue and accelerate until there is one interoperable high function protocol suite that delivers full functionality and interoperability. Mr. Williams has stimulated and codified dialog within the OSI and IPS communities. His efforts are aimed at the convergence of profiling and IETFstandards development paradigms. This is seen as an aid to the procurement of IPS and OSI/IPS converged products by Government and Private Industry procurement entities.
Mr. Williams specializes in technology that provides interoperability in today's world where IPS and GOSIP/OSI are separate. Mr. Williams implements technology providing "application gateways" between IPS and OSI applications. Mr. Williams also implements technology allowing OSI applications to run on top of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) layer of the IPS. Mr. Williams has extensive experience in the implementation of current leading edge IPS technologies including HTML publishing (home page design et. al.), Mobile / Wireless E-Mail and LAN communications, ISDN implementation, Information Kiosk design and implementation, World Wide Web Database Search engines, Video Teleconferencing, , WWW Browsers such as Netscape and IPS Security. Mr. Williams also assisted in the development of the original Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol implemented by Netscape Servers and Clients.
