Jonathan N. Hurley received a B.A. in Chemistry from Cambridge University in 1986, and an M.S. in theoretical chemistry from Caltech in 1988. At Deltagen, Mr. Hurley served as the Director of Software Architecture. He was responsible for many of the key productivity designs, including a metadata-driven web development environment that allowed deployment of new web code (reporting, data entry, and navigation) with no new coding. Between 1988 and 1995 he held scientific development and management positions at Molecular Simulations, Inc. and Biosym Technologies, Inc. At Biosym, Mr. Hurley managed the development of the Discover program, the pre-eminent molecular mechanics code in the industry. Some of the projects that Mr. Hurley has been involved with at since joining VCI include VAnimator, a Visual C++ molecular graphics program that VCI uses to produce sophisticated chemical animations for the marketing and legal communities; an Automated Revenue Collection system for a transit agency which features a high performing transaction processing component architected on Sybase SQL Server; and a client/ server program using Visual Basic and Oracle to enable construction and maintenance of combinatorial chemistry libraries. |
