Management BIOs

Mr. Brower's engineering management and design experience includes products and systems in the areas of communications, oil exploration, defense electronics, space exploration, telecom, control systems, acoustic/audio algorithms, and industrial automation. He is a system architect and designer, as well as expert at software, hardware, and logic design, and a range of programming languages and operating systems.

At Gearhart (now part of Halliburton) Mr. Brower helped develop complex signal processing algorithms for measurement-while-drilling systems, extracting drill bit sensor information sent via mud pulse to the surface. Rates of 4 bps achieved by Gearhart's signal processing team in 1983 still compare well with state-of-the-art systems running 6 to 10 bps.

At E-Systems (now Raytheon) Datacom group Mr. Brower was a software engineering team leader for the MARC rapid deployment communication shelter. Next generation MARC systems continue to be deployed by USAF Air Mobility Command at flash points around the world.

In 1984 Mr. Brower co-founded Hyperception, acquired by National Instruments in 2004, and in 1991 he founded Signalogic to provide infrastructure and system-level solutions based on DSP technology. At Hyperception, Mr. Brower was co-author of the Hypersignal software package, still in use today at industry, academic , and R&D locations.

During his career at Signalogic, Mr. Brower has been responsible for creating a range of software and hardware products, including DirectDSP software and PC104 and PTMC board product lines. In addition, he has worked on-site and/or on a consulting basis with technical and management personnel at a wide range of organizations, including JPL, military installations, Texas Instruments, Sanmina, Motorola, Lucent and major defense subcontractors and suppliers.

Mr. Brower maintained a top 10 class ranking in academics and military at the U.S. Air Force Academy from 1978-1980, and graduated with a BS in Electrical Engineering and Mathematics from the University of Texas at Arlington in 1982.

Ms. Vu obtained a BS degree in Business Administration with Management Information Systems concentration at Universtiy of Texas at Dallas in May 2001 and accepted a full-time position at Signalogic. Ms. Vu started working at Signalogic in March 1999 and has become expert at dealing with business issues concerning the company's complex technical products and supplier and manufacturing relationships.

Ms. Vu manages the company's portfolio of off-the-shelf board products, production customers, distributor network, and resale of DSP development tools.

Ms. Vu also supervises company finance operations and human resources.
