Aleth D. : When
did you integrate in the Pentalog High Tech's development
team ? |
| Florin
M. : I came to Pentalog High Tech's Brasov office
as a stagiar during my studies at the university.
The fact of working and studying in the same time
allowed me to apply my theoretical knowledge learned
in the university and to expand my informatic culture.
After that, this allowed me to approach the theoretical
classes in a more global way and to learn the responsabilities
of informatic's development. The university brought
me the basic elements regarding modern informatic
tools(programing oriented objects, Java, UML, EJB,
SGBDR…) and working in a company provided
me the possibility of a pratic approach. |
Aleth D. : Which
are the projects your worked for until now ? |
|
Florin
M. : At the beginning, I worked at the datas
recovery engine, part of the application ThePort,
and specially for its first modul,ThePortMaster,
the interface engine, the central part of the
IHM application. This engine, which was at the
beginning a modul used to transform the datas
from the XML files in HTML format, had been improved
in prder to permit connections with different
datas sources, Oracle databases, LDAP annuars(Active
Directory and Open LDAP).
This made me participate to the integration project
of ThePort for our french clients : an application
of payement gestion and a cotation site for wines,
under guidance of Iulia A. (mywineaccount.com).
At these two projects of integration, I had the
occasion of learning new things in the domain
of Oracle databases gestion with Java, all by
using the XML's utilities for integration.
The modul EPOLE, based on the The Port's architecture,
is one of the last applications I had developed.
EPOLE is an application which permits the visualisation
on-line of the development of informatic projects.

Aleth D. : What
do you expect of your futur sejur in France ? |
| Florin
M. : My hopes relating to my stay in France
are at the same time professional and personal.
From a professional point of view, I hope to be
able to emphasize knowledge which I acquired up
to now and to continue the long process of accumulation
of information which a developer must follow. Already,
I had the possibility of learning various programming
languages and of working on Web applications which
entered certain logics trades. The data-processing
world evolving/moving continuously, and the informational
needs in the same way, I hope to satisfy my curiosity
very continuously to widen the horizon of my professional
knowledge. For that, the data-processing field is
a ground favourable with research. The possibility
of working in France and more particularly in direct
relationship to the customers is also a good occasion
to still include/understand better the various needs
for the users for whom we develop applications.
From a personal point of view I feel also curiosity
to be confronted with a European field crop, with
different traditions, to know new people. |
Aleth D. : How
do you hope to emphasize your French experiments
after your return in Romania? |
| Florin
M. : I hope that my work in
France will be a good experiment of work, undertaken
in a different environment, with different colleagues.
Personally, I hope that the fact of being confronted
with various technologies and needs will give me
a vaster vision of the development and management
of the projects on which I will work. |
Aleth D. :
You have a command of the French language remarkably
well... |
| Florin
M. : I was likely
to follow the courses of a bilingual college French-Rumanian
and to be thus confronted with the language, the
history and the French culture just as with his
economic realities. The conversations with our French
colleagues who regularly come to work with us, thereafter,
enriched my vocabulary. |
Aleth D. : You
had never been in France before ? |
| Florin
M. : For the
moment, France is a universe which I know by the
books, television or by the intermediary of the
French that I met here. Without to have ever gone
there, I am sure that there are many the things
to like in France. But that remains still virtual.
I will know true France only at the time of my arrival
in Orleans, the next month. My first interest is
to meet and know people and their mentalities. Then,
I wait impatiently to visit the Paris, Loire château
and his monument. It will be a direct meeting with
the history, the culture and the French civilization
, which I know yet only by far.I appreciate already
the books, the French cinema and I certainly will
like the spectacles and others artistic surprises
that France will bring to me. Let us not forget
the French gastronomy and wine. to have tested the
pastis, the wine of Bordeaux and the cassoulet brought
by our colleagues of France, I think that that must
be very riche en calories too. |
|
Aleth D. : Would
you like to work on mission in other countries
for our customers ?
|
| Florin
M. : I am opened
with any mission among our customers. Working in
another country brings a professional and personal
new experiment, inevitably enriching. |
|
Aleth D. : Which
are the strong points of your profile CV ?
|
| Florin
M. : On the level of the languages
of development, I control Java (including JÈE),
with related technologies: Applet, Servlets, JSP,
JDBC, Parsing XML, Java Beans, RMI, EJB. On the
development Web, I can mention the HTML, DHTML,
Javascript. On the level of the data bases, I worked
on Oracle, ms Access, Fox Pro. The design and development
tools which I used are Visual Café, JCreator,
Power AMC, Macromedia Dreamweaver, Rational. On
the level of the Web servers, I had the advisability
of working on several platforms like JSWDK, Apache-Tomcat
and JBoss. Let us not forget the use and the hard
development of directories LDAP: Activate Directory
and OpenLDAP. |
