Instructors

Brian Catlin

Brian Catlin is co-owner and Vice President of Azius LLC. He started building and programming 8-bit microprocessors in 1977, switched to VAX/VMS in 1982 where he specialized in device drivers, and finally to Windows NT in 1992, specializing in device drivers and internals. Brian got into device drivers because he likes to write software that interacts with the real world; writing business software is his definition of torture. Brian also spent a great deal of time in the aerospace/ defense world designing command centers, where he learned the discipline of specification writing and project management. Brian offers consulting services through his company, Sannas Consulting.

Jamie Hanrahan

Jamie Hanrahan is co-owner and President of Azius, LLC. He wrote his first device drivers in 1976, for a hardware interface of his own design on an HP 2100 minicomputer under DOS-M. Later he spent some time working for Digital Equipment Corporation, winning their "Instructor of the Year" award while teaching VMS internals and device driver classes. He has been working with Windows NT device drivers since before NT 3.1's first release and has provided over 30 drivers to consulting clients. Sometimes describing himself as a "frustrated EE," he often finds tools such as oscilloscopes and logic analyzers invaluable in driver debugging. His consulting services are available through his company, Kernel Mode Systems.

Mark Roddy

Mark Roddy is an instructor at Azius, LLC. He started out in 1980 developing IBM compatible SNA and Bisync controllers for Raytheon Data Systems. From there he moved on to developing Unix-based operating systems for several minicomputer companies, including ten years developing and designing fault-tolerant operating systems for Sequoia Systems. He has been working on Windows NT device driver development projects since the NT 3.51 release. Mark offers consulting services through his own consulting firm, Hollis Technology Solutions.
