ProjectsResponsible for minor quick change requests
ROI Me: Moderate ROI Boeing: Moderate
1st project – Redesign Internal Boeing Portland Phone List WebsiteConverted classic ASP to ASP.NET v2.0 Converted Visual Basic to C# Applied the Boeing master page to websiteRedesigned the user interface of the website
ROI ME: High ROI Boeing: High
Projects2nd project – My largest project
Convert classic ASP and Visual Basic websites to ASP.NET v2.0 and C#
After the conversion process was complete the Boeing master page was applied
All changes were tracked in Rational ClearQuest
Source control was Microsoft’s Visual Source Safe ROI Me: High ROI Boeing: High
Before Conversion Process
After Conversion Process
Projects3rd project – Create Cascading Style Sheet for
the Portland master page Existing master page CSS wasn’t compatible
with IE7CSS had to make the master page look exactly
like it did in Firefox 2 & 3 ROI Me: High ROI Boeing: Very High
Projects4th project – Redesign Instant Award Vouchers website
Customer requested changes to a large website application
I was in charge of heading up the changesThe website went through an upgrade from ASP.NET
v1.1 to ASP.NET v2.0 and the Boeing master page was applied
User interface was modified to requested specificationsCode behind was converted from Visual Basic to C#
and some functions were modified to accommodate the user interface changes ROI Me: High ROI Boeing: Very High
Organizational StructureProjects were monitored by my mentor Kevin
DurrAll projects went through a process cycle defined
in Rational ClearQuestWrong entries in ClearQuest resulted in
automated emails sent to KevinProjects were always placed in source control
(VSS)Typical software process
Submitted, Analyze, Approve, In Work, Functional Test, Customer Test, Verify, Completed
Department InteractionWorking with different departments within
Boeing was commonThe Portland IT Group creates and supports
website applications for “customers” or different departments
For my projects I interacted with the NC Programming group, Dell Support Group, Human Resources Group, and Gearline Business Team
The Portland IT Group has a 100% customer satisfaction guarantee.
LearningI have learned the importance of having a
software development process (Waterfall Model)Learned ASP, ASP.NET v1.1, ASP.NET v2.0,
AJAX, C#, CSS, MS-SQL, and some Visual BasicLearned that gathering requirements for large
projects can be difficult and time consumingFigured out how to use Visual Studio 2005 and
its many features, including how to bind VSS for automated source control
Useful ClassesCS 261 Data StructuresCS 275 Introduction to DatabasesCS 311 Operating Systems ICS 361 Software Engineering ICS 362 Software Engineering II
Overall ImpressionBoeing is a great place for your first
internshipI feel that I learned many new and useful
skillsThe internship helped me progress toward
future goalsBoeing has laid out a good structure for
interns and Mike Lushenko is able to answer all MECOP related questions
