Ms. Constance T. Chittenden Vice President of Software Engineering, Neural Systems Corporation 1990 to present.

Member of the Board:

Vice President of Software Engineering, Neural Systems Corporation 1990 to present.

Ms. Chittenden received a B.S. in Mathematics with distinction from Stanford University where she was elected to Phi Beta Kappa.

She has continued her education in software engineering, total quality management, engineering management, and technical project management. She has over 20 years of experience, with emphasis on signal processing applications, real-time embedded software, and multiple platform/language configurations. Work included projects for DOD, NASA, and commercial companies.

Ms. Chittenden joined Advent Systems as a consultant in 1995 and become a Senior Member of the Technical Staff in 1997. She currently is Program manager for a project implementing a radar signal processing FPGA for the Air Force (AFRL), from code she first developed in a MATLAB model. She has been a key member of Advent Systems' radar polarimeter development team, contributing the requirements specifications and code for the digital hardware system and its architecture. She also has implemented the TDL technology for high-speed signal classification, leading an FPGA development team in prototype development for a Phase II SBIR project.

From 1995 to 1997 Ms. Chittenden worked for TRW Systems Integration Group as a senior systems engineer and also managed a consulting practice.

From 1974 to 1995 she held increasingly responsible positions with SRI International, progressing from senior software engineer to assistant director of the Acoustics and Radar Technology Laboratory. Her work included development of acoustic digital signal processors and communications processors, development of embedded software for advanced defense systems, and the development of ambulatory physiological monitors and recorders. She spent several years managing the development of hardware, software, and analysis systems for collecting, processing, and utilizing sonar and other acoustic data.

Ms. Chittenden is the co-inventor and co-patent holder of the basic TDL patent, and has been cofounder, director, and Vice President of software engineering at Neural Systems Corporation since 1990. She has been active in utilizing TDL in a variety of applications, including hard disk drive channel capacity improvement, ECG-based diagnosis, and defibrillation control. As a consultant for Digideck, Inc. from 1985 to 1987, she c-invented, and is the co-holder of a patent on data compression technology.

Ms. Chittenden holds four patents, has published numerous papers in professional journals and symposia, has been a principal in two commercial start-up companies, and has held various IEEE WESCON positions. She received the 1987 award for Outstanding Engineer for Information Systems from the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and the 1985 Technical Excellence Award of the Society of Women Engineers.
