SOLid

SOLid is a specialized and custom-built Document Management System (DMS) used for producing and browsing technical documentation and is aimed at small and medium production-oriented companies. SOLid is best suited for application areas where documented artifacts are best organized in hierarchical structures. It supports navigation through these hierarchies either using tree views or pictures of artifacts (via hotspots, as in Web interface).

The main goal of SOLid is to replace or extend traditional paper-based documentation, improve the way it is utilized, as well as offer some support for exploitation tracking. Created integrated documentation may be easily distributed on CDs and DVDs.

SOLeo

SOLeo is a Web-based system that enables quick creation of a family of Web sites of embassies of Serbia, along with their centralized and easy maintenance and management of their content. The created Web sites and their management are performed through the same Web interface. It bundles pre-defined types of objects (a.k.a. classes) that implement the overall functionality of the Website as well as the common layout and design of the Web sites.

Although SOLeo is targeted on rapid creation and centralized maintenance of Websites of embassies and consular offices of a country, it may be easily modified to accelerate Web presence of a multinational company. This is due the ready-made functionality for usual editing tasks, such as writing text, inserting images, staff listings, translation functionalities, etc.

Built on: Zope, an open-source content management framework.

Web-Based Real-Estate Marketing

WREM is a Web application that is used by the Belgrade Directorate of Serbia (BDS) to market their activities in building flats and other real-estate all across the country. BDS is building hundreds of flats every year, which are offered to the public market. Such a dynamic and complex activity is being supported by an information system from April 2003, when SOL provided WREM to BDS.

WREM allows the Web users to browse and view the contents of the offer of flats. The contents can be browsed through cities, locations, and objects or a set of flats can be selected according to an arbitrary combination of a large number of criteria (e.g. floor, number of rooms, surface, price, type of heating, existence of a lift, satellite TV, interphone, etc.) The description of a flat contains all its characteristics as listed, as well as its floor map. The authorized dealers of WREM can also book a flat for a customer.

A back-end administrative application allows real-estate agents of BDS to manage the offer in a very intuitive and easy manner, according to the usability orientation of the SOLoist technology. There is a number of shortcutting features to manage the contents, such as repetitive creation of a series of flats of the same type, deleting outdated reservations, etc.

An interesting fact about this project is that it was accomplished in an extremely short time frame. Its first version, with about 80% of its functionality (with the entire administrative module and all the features accessible to the Web users, except for dealers), was installed on the Web in only 7 days! This phase included the system analysis and requirements specification, database design, and data migration from a legacy system. The complete project was done in 14 days total!

Built on: SOLoist 2 and ASP

Developed: 2003

End User: Any visitor, but most notably real-estate agents

Engineering Document and Drawing GIS

A very complex and sophisticated engineering information system from the same domain as the previous one. Basically, it is an improved descendent of its predecessor, but it has an essentially enhanced conceptual basis. Namely, in this system, the contents of the CAD drawings (i.e., the elements of the engineering and geographical plans) are promoted into objects that have their properties and behavior, and which are stored in the systemďs object space. At the first sight, this makes it a kind of a GIS (Geographical Information System), but it is something more than that.

First, it is tailored for the engineering needs (electricity, traffic, mechanics, etc.). Second, the objects in the system have their properties, categorized into subjects as needed by the users, and also their behavior, which make the objects ˝active and reactive.˝ Moreover, the conceptual model of the system, i.e., the classes of objects, their attributes, operations, and behavior, can be created and modified by the users at runtime, that is, during the execution of the system, without any intervention of the developers. Such a feature allows the users to customize the system, actually its very conceptual scheme, according to their particular needs. This makes it unique in the engineering field.

Engineering Document and Drawing Management System

An interactive application, actually an information system, dedicated to the engineering departments that manage huge numbers of engineering drawings and plans, such as drawings of buildings, mechanical, electrical, traffic, and other installations and equipment, etc. It helps the users manipulate and manage CAD drawings of certain geographical regions or engineering constructions.

The system provides easy navigation through the repository of drawings, using their geographical relationships in the absolute world coordinates, provides a controlled access to the drawings and their management, lets the user preview the drawings, and filters or select certain parts of the drawings. The system also co-operates with a concrete CAD program, which is used for editing the drawings.

Workshop Process and Document Management System

An object-oriented enterprise information system, predominantly (but not exclusively) dedicated to engineering and planning, workshops, production, and technical documentation maintenance. It supports management of data (in fact, objects) of user-defined types, documents and composite documentation (e.g. technical manuals), workflow, and other common enterprise information, resources and processes.

More precisely, it is a framework for different general and domain-specific modules that support manufacturing, business, and decision-making at various enterprise levels. It is a contemporary, object-oriented, highly configurable system with an intuitive and friendly GUI (Graphical User Interface), built on the state-of-the-art object oriented technologies.
