About the Author
Frank W. Zammetti is a web architect specialist for a leading worldwidefinancial company by day, and a PocketPC and open-source developer bynight. He is the founder and chief software architect of OmnytexTechnologies, a PocketPC development house.
He has over 12 years of “professional” experience in the IT field,and over 12 more of “amateur” experience. He began his nearly life-longlove of computers at age 7 when he became one of four students chosento take part in the school district’s pilot computer program. A yearlater, he was the only participant left! The first computer Frank ownedwas a Timex Sinclair 1000 in 1982, on which he wrote a program to lookup movie times for all of Long Island (and without the 16k expansionmodule!). After that, he moved on to a Commodore 64 and spent about 4years doing nothing but assembly programming (games mostly). He finallygot his first IBM-compatible PC in 1987, and began learning the finerpoints of programming (as they existed at that time!).
Frank has primarily developed web-based applications for about 8years. Before that, he developed Windows-based client/serverapplications in a variety of languages. Frank holds numerouscertifications including SCJP, MCSD, CNA, i-Net+, A+, CIW, MCP, andnumerous BrainBench certifications. He is a contributor to a number ofopen source projects, including DataVision, Struts, PocketFrog, andJakarta Commons. In addition, Frank has started two projects: Java WebParts and The Struts Web Services Enablement Project. He also was oneof the founding members of a project that created the first fullyfunctioning Commodore 64 emulator for PocketPC devices (PocketHobbit).
Frank has authored various articles on topics that range fromintegrating DataVision into web apps, to using Ajax in Struts-basedapplications. He is currently working on a new application frameworkspecifically geared to creating next-generation web applications.
