TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN |
|
This is to confirm that Markus Hagenbuchner worked for me as
a Research Assistant/Programmer on 12-month research project sponsored
by the Australian Defence Science & Technology Organisation. During
this time he demonstrated his considerable skills in programming (C/C++
on Unix/PC), software development, and experimentation. Markus worked well
as part of a team, and his English communication skills - both spoken and
written - were first rate. |
|
I supervised Markus for his B.Comp.Sci(Honours) Project "The Application
of Neural Networks to Oblique-Incidence Ionograms". His research was
of a sufficient high standard to subsequently have one conference paper
and two journal articles published directly from his work. |
|
Also I taught Markus in two honours/graduate subjects - CSCI964 Neual Networks
and CSCI945 Parallel Computing. He consistently performed at the Distinction/High
Distinction level in both. |
|
During his time at the University of Wollongong, Markus also worked as
a part-time Research Assistant/Programmer for A.Prof. David Edelman in
the Department of Accountancy (helping to impart his knowledge of neural
networks). |
|
I also can vouch that Markus worked as a first-year tutor in Computer Science
(C++ programming on Power Macintosh), and once again demonstrated his capability
in this area. |
|
I lend my unqualified support to Markus' attempts to return to Australia
under "permanent resident" status. He has proved himself without
question an asset which the country would greatly benefit from having.
I would be only too happy to provide additional supporting evidence if
you should so desire. |
