We are capable of handling building, testing and deploying embedded systems from our training and experience:
This mix of skills is a rare level of expertise.
Computer scientists who major in operating systems, microprocessors and parallel processing are in demand and hard to find according to Microsoft Research. We are one of those professionals, purely by accident as we did this to finish our BSc in computer science! After 20 years this weird combo has proven very fruitful for our business and career!
We are seeking ventures in this area to capitalise on this knowledge and expertise and advance our business.
According to ResMed in June 2008, there is a slump in software engineers coming out of universities in Australia: a 50% drop in the last 5 years, 2002-2007 or so. They are considering outsourcing their real-time programming for medical devices to Indian developers instead of recruiting Australian developers and giving them a go - very small-minded!
We will build Australian software talent by keeping the software development in Australia and not outsource offshore to save money on training and building vital practical experience in the real world.
We believe from our many years of experience in the IT industry that Australian businesses are not well educated re hi-tech systems and usually ignore very good hi-tech opportunities because they can't understand it.
In WWWalker Web Development Pty Ltd we have a vehicle where we can face challenges by taking on the risk ourselves, train ourselves and go through the learning curve to add value to our country by developing software here not offshore and reap the benefit. Taking risks by keeping software local is where we are headed unlike many businesses who will not hire new recruits because it takes 2 to 3 years to get them up to speed. If businesses will spend that 2 to 3 years training staff, the benefits will be high. This assumes staff will stay with the business and return the investment that the boss put into them.
We think ahead not just of tomorrow. In our own little business sometimes it takes 2 to 3 years to get all the ducks in a row so that a project will go ahead but we venture out and don't just wait till someone overseas does it first and copy them. That would give the overseas company first-mover advantage and leave us in the dust yet again in Australia.
Industrial applications include:
Consumer or small business applications include managing and using portable multimedia devices like

Another application for government is software for microprocessors for railway signalling applications on the NSW lines, both federal and state using XML data.
This does not include manufacturing control systems such as with ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits) on the factory floor though there is a shortage of C programmers in this field.
We cross-compile real-time software in C, assembler and Ada and use Python DB API and Java JDBC to connect to embedded databases like InterBase and Informix Dynamic Server on Linux, FreeBSD and Windows XP for Intel, AMD, Motorola, Z80 and RISC microprocessors.
We use agile, incremental, waterfall and UML methodologies to design, implement, test and deploy the software.
Contact us if you have a specific need for embedded programming expertise and we will give you a quote. We are agile so can modify or adapt to what you need from a given prototype and have our own project management system to keep track of progress and expenses.
We are smart developers as we have both computer science and information management to provide cutting edge applications and development strategies.
