Monica Peters
Experienced Web Architect For Hire

Portfolio:
Onkwehonwe.com.

A small army of robots I programmed to learn and share endangered and dead language translations. My robots give language translations and pronunciations to webpages, instant messengers, cell phones, animatronic toys, mobile devices, robotics, home automation systems, smart car devices, and more.

My robot brains learn any language and topic FAST because I develop them with Artificial Intelligence, Natural Language Processing, and other innovative technologies. They have been extensively tested for ten years now, and proven stable enough to talk with unlimited numbers of peole and other bots, all at the same time.

Onkwehonwe can get help from me, to build their own robot characters to speak their own endangered language dialects, look like their own characters, sound like their own fluent speakers voices, give tests and keep score for language learning students, and more.

For about nine years now, I have been speaking with my robots and getting language translations, hearing the pronunciations, taking tests - with scores... I even used a small hand-held device at one time, to get translations in the middle of the night, in regards to my dreams... sometimes I called my robots from a train to get translations and to just chat about Onkwehonwe culture too.

I look forward to the day when more Onkwehonwe can benefit from my work :) My mohawk robots have over 200,000 language translations in their knowledge base as of Nov. 2005.

WEB PROGRAMMING, DEVELOPING, DESIGNING
Html, Dhtml, Shtml
I have hard-coded literally thousands of webpages in the past ten years using Html, Dhtml, and Shtml. (SSI)
I have designed, developed, and programmed every style imaginable, based on each client’s requirements, goals, target audience, and capabilities.
Important Factors that I always keep in mind is ‘Multi-Modal’, Cross Browser Compatibility, Human Friendly, and Functionality to name a few.

CSS, CSS2, XSL, XSLT
I frequently use CSS to keep websites look and feel standardized and to keep future updates a bit easier.
I edit XSL for my chatbots that automatically log information to XML files. I do this so that when my client opens the XML log files up in Internet Explorer, the format and design is good enough to print and publish as is.

JRE, J2EE, JDBC
I frequently install and configure JRE and various Java APIs to support a wide variety of web applications on windows and unix. For Example: alicebots, chatbots, Concept Tutor, QuizImagae

JSP
I worked with a traditional graphic designer; I sliced up her photos and I optimized them for the web. Later I trained her how to do basic web design.
Next I set up the website directory structure and hard coded the webpages.
I had to ensure that file sizes were kept at a minimum from all team members; using innovation when needed.
I added JSP codes to all webpages, to call to the data from the corporate database that was developed by another Java Programmer / D.B.A..

VISUAL SOURCESAFE
I used Visual SourceSafe to work on this project with a flash programmer, java programmer/d.b.a., and internet marketing execs.
This website and database handled over 80 million clients.

ACTIVEX OBJECTS (MSAgent)
I use various scripting to call to ActiveX objects depending on the requirements, such as vbscript, perl, cgi, and aiml.

ACTIONSCRIPT, AS2
I use actionscript when coding flash for voice recognition, to grab dynamic data from external websites and local intranet databases since around 2002. I am just starting to learn more about Flash Remoting and COM server.

PERL
Activestate Perl, Cgi
I have installed, configured, and customized hundreds (maybe thousands) of Perl/Cgi applications in the past ten years. Including auction sites, online dating sites, forums, classifieds apps, commission management sites, CMS, and more. Usually I install to windows OS or Unix boxes.

I am most recently learning how to code perl scripts from scratch, with useractive.com Unix/Linux System Administration Certification. They give me a problem and I have to code a perl script to provide the solution.

PHP MYSQL
I code PHP, SQL, and set up MySQL Databases to control username/password logins to specifc web applications. For example: custom web applications, moodle, postnuke, phpbb, and others.

SAPI
I frequently use various scripting to call to SAPI 4 and SAPI 5 when I develop and hard-code voice recognition and Text to Speech web applications and software.

MACROMEDIA DEV: Flash5 - MX - 8, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, Freehand, Central

MICROSOFT VISUAL SOURCESAFE
I used this with a team of programmers. I trained the web designer how to use sourcesafe correctly and the reason for using sourcesafe with a team of developers.
