Technical information on software applications
With the exception of Cello, all software detailed below is developed by Meniscus. All applications are totally web based.

Calculation Engine |
|
|
|
This is our core application that powers the IPMS Process and Utility Management application.
Powerful enough to combine/fuse different data sets and to undertake any calculation in real time. Flexible enough to be intergrated directly into third party applications or any alternative data source.
Comprises a Data Engine and a Data Provider.
Data Engine: monitors underlying calculations and availability of raw data for changes and automatically recalculates all data dependant on those changes.
Data Provider: controls connection to and from data sources. Uses Web Services to stream data to and from web pages or Dynamic Dashboards. New Data Providers can be created to connect to alternative data sources.

Dynamic Dashboards |
|
|
Using MS Silverlighttm we develop customised dashboards that we automatically update using the Web Services built into the Calculation Engine.
These provide:
-
Outstanding graphics capability.
-
Features you would normally exect in an application - but delivered through a web browser.
-
Ability to use any calculation. Change the calculation from the web site and the data is automatically updated.
