Adjustment of an eClient for IBM Content Manager for a financial service provider

A leading financial services company based in Hanover faced the problem of having various software systems in service, due to several acquisitions and mergers. To enable all employees to have access to the same data pool, we have developed a browser-based software for the internal archive system, all the while having to take into account the rights structure, which has been in use for years. The implementation of several user interfaces from different software products proved to be a special challenge, because this was crucial to ensure a high user acceptance. Our developers brought this project into being in Java and JSP for the query of a wide variety of IBM, DB2 and Oracle databases, and within the shortest amount of time.

VPM support for an aviation and aerospace company

As a leading manufacturer in the aerospace industry, our client had already a grown PLM structure. Several PDM and PLM systems ran alongside, in most different software programs. Contracted by this client, DataSquare has taken over the tasks 2nd and 3rd level support for the VPM system from Dassault and the software-related adjustments of various interfaces in C++.

Development of a mobile phone software interface for a telecommunications company

Our client develops even the most different software packages for communications companies, which act on a global scale. Because of staff shortage, we were asked to supported this client with the development of software in C++ and Java on MS SQL and Oracle databases. The task in hand was to develop a control software for speech recognition, which leads the caller automatically to pre-defined phone loops or groups. At the same time, all relevant customer data had to be read from various databases via phone number recognition, to be displayed on screen in front of the operator.

Development within structural mechanics in the aircraft industry: ISAMI adjustment

As a leading aircraft manufacturer, our client was facing the challenge of not finding a finite element calculation software which met his requirements. Because of this, in many years of development a FEM software called ISAMI was created. Our task was to retrieve various data from worldwide data sources for Python and Visual Basic. Apart from that, our FEM software specialists further developed and adjusted single modules according to specifications made by the client.

Development within structural mechanics in the aircraft industry: development of an ISAMI/ISSY interface

Our client, the biggest manufacturer worldwide in aviation and aerospace, developed his own FEM software called ISSY based on Fortran in the nineteen-eighties. In 2006 it was decided that it had to be replaced by a more modern version called ISAMI. As the project plan was scheduled over a timespan of several years, both systems had to be used alongside each other. In order to be able to exchange data bidirectionally, DataSquare has developed an ISAMI/ISSY interface in Fortran and Python.

Development within structural mechanics in the aircraft industry: ISSY maintenance

Over several decades our client, being part of the aviation and aerospace industry, has developed his own finite element calculation software ISSY. Although this tool has been replaced by its follow-up software in the meantime, it needs to be maintained as long as aircrafts are in use, which have been calculated by it. For our client we have taken over the worldwide maintenance of this tool in C and Fortran. Our FEM specialists are constantly adapting the calculation routines for new materials–composite, for instance–correct occurring errors and modernize the software step by step.

Development within structural mechanics in the aircraft industry: Nastran programming
