My fascination with chaos theory was sparked of by an article in the Scientific American in the 1980's. This interest was intensified in 1991 when I read James Gleick's book Chaos. My interest in chaos theory is rooted in my eternal quest to understand nature. I feel that this is the key to understanding how individuals and businesses must change to survive and prosper in the future global society.
- learning HTML and using it to write my book and build my web site
- my opinions on Web site design
- keeping up with MS Windows 95 and taking on OS/2 Warp 4
- keenly following the development of Open Source Linux
- Robos an operating system for message-driven finite-state machine applications (written in C)
- HTML tag filter and interpretation functions (written in C)
- Neural Networks: a multi-layer perceptron (written in C) with some suggested applications

To bring myself up to date in 1996 I changed to programming in Java. The following applets illustrate some of the application areas which I have delved into using Java.
- Client-side Keyword Search Engine applet
- A simple non-caching, non-proxy Web server (not an applet).
- A bar graph applet which displays web site hits statistics.
- Moving Map Navigator - automatic guidance for aircraft
- Way-point Encounter navigational system development
- Personal Link contacts management database
- Difference Equation Iterater (Chaos Theory)
- Bifurcation Map Generator (Chaos Theory)
- Mandelbrot Set Generator (Chaos Theory)
- Hénon's Strange Attractor - a mathematical mind bender
- Sigmoid Function generator (re neural networks)
- Lissajous Figures demonstration
- Radio Receiver Pass-band Simulator
- An HTML word counter and vocabulary compiler
Some of these applets were developed using Sun Microsystems' Java Developer's Kit 1.0.1 running on IBM OS/2 Warp4. Others were developed after I upgraded to Versions 1.1.4. and 1.1.6 which I installed on both OS/2 Warp 4 and Windows 95. These applets are posted in full working order on my web site.
- A neural network multi-layer perceptron
- various air navigation functions
- various HTML browser functions
- elements of a message driven operating system
