Internet
Applications
Advanced Internet
development encompasses the design and implementation of sophisticated
distributed systems. Internet systems generally embody multiple,
interoperable applications distributed across multiple computers
and disparate environments. These typically incorporate elements
from several technical areas and may include a relational database
subsystem, text sifting and sorting technologies (natural language
processing), data encryption, dynamic Web page generation, and firewalling.
ReQuest offers a staff of experienced software developers accustomed
to developing all aspects of an integrated software system.
Application Areas
- Virtual libraries spanning multiple sites.
- Conferencing, using audiovisual tools, including
shared video and audio streams, whiteboards and shared documents.
- Multimedia data archives storing imagery, audio,
textual, radar and other binary data.
- Data mining tools such as surveys and automated
search technologies.
- Push technologies, including automation of email
and FTP transmissions based on database queries or system events.
ReQuest, in
partnership with other companies and federal agencies, has participated
in the development of several large-scale virtual library systems,
some of which are deployed today. In addition, ReQuest personnel
have worked on diverse Internet applications including conferencing
tools, database query push applications, and interactive Web-based
questionnaires.
