Abstract
For the past two and half years I have worked with Nucleus Communications in
Portage, Michigan. Nucleus Communications is a multimedia production firm that
specializes in designing and implementing business applications for the World Wide
Web. During my time at Nucleus I have worked on a number of Internet projects and
applications. My work experience at Nucleus has benefited my computer science
experience at "K" tremendously. It has allowed me to apply the fundamental computer
science principles that I have learned in the classroom to the real world. For example, in
my computer science courses the professors have always stressed the value of good
commenting of code; I didn't fully realize the importance of this until I went to modify a
CGI script at Nucleus which was poorly commented. The projects I've worked on at
Nucleus represent a growing area of computer science, the Internet.
This summer I worked on three large Internet projects; each with its own
uniqueness. I believe these projects are a good representation of the computer science
skills that I have learned at "K" and Nucleus, and thus, spawned the idea for my SIP: the
development of Internet systems. It is my intent to discuss these three projects and offer
the reader a better understanding of the development and implementation process
involved with Internet projects.
