A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Jim Luisi is a graduate of Brooklyn College and currently participates in the management of two software companies, inventing new ways of looking at things and designing leading edge business solutions. Having lived previously New York and California, Jim is a now resident of New Jersey. Jim still enjoys the area in California that his mom lives in, and enjoys visiting his sister, Marie, as she periodically relocates to new and interesting locations throughout the United States. Jim is grateful to his sister and the various elves for their tremendous contribution to the book with their skillful proof reading and relentless, yet always, constructive criticism. Jim has worked in database technology for over twenty years, participated in every aspect of the software development life cycle for large information systems on Wall Street, and large control systems regarding defense work, and performed as a management consultant in extremely large automation efforts. He has also managed a research effort into artificial intelligence for a major aerospace company, and co-developed 'Process Normalization', which is a process that normalizes millions of lines of code to tens of thousands. As to specific accomplishments, Mr. Luisi was the chief architect of the DataPulse database technology, the first cognitive database system, and the Business Intelligence applications that have been developed using it.Most importantly, Jim's pride and joy is his daughter, born in San Diego on the 21st of August 1990, whose welcome interruptions, along with those of the rest of his family, helped influence Jim's decision not to change his career to become a writer.
