TechnologyAMOS: At The Forefront Of Technological Innovation

It has always been one of Swiss AviationSoftware’s primary goals to provide customers with a technologically state-of-the-art software package. Therefore, innovative technologies have continuously been implemented in the process of further enhancing the system.

Being written in pure JAVA, the most popular programming language on the market today, the technological basis for a state-of-the-art software product is given:

• AMOS is hardware independent (Windows, Linux, UNIX server) which implies scalability/flexibility with regard to any choice of hardware.
• Except for the database (Sybase/Oracle), AMOS relies on no external software components.
  
• AMOS is fully web enabled which implies the availability of data at any place in the world.
• Client updates are performed via web.
• Advanced technology has been deployed regarding system security.
• The Graphical User Interface stands for ease of use.
• The AMOS support server helps to optimise the communication between the customer and Swiss-AS.

Fourth Generation Of AMOS

In the context of responding to future trends, compromise is not part of our Research & Development policy.

In the past year, AMOS has made a quantum leap in terms of technology due to the Smart Client Technology.

All technological advantages identified in the past have been combined with Java Web Start and its smart deployment possibilities, such as:

• Zero footprint (no local installation necessary)
• Accessibility of the application from any client
• No continuous download of user interface elements
• Look & feel of a rich client GUI
• Encryption (https) and compression (gzip, Pack200) is supported
