Chart Generator: Internet Decision Support System

A brokerage house

Many critical business activities require careful analysis of various market data. A large brokerage house needed to boost efficiency with a special tool that that could compare the data collected with goals, norms, and standards, in order to identify, describe, monitor, and evaluate market indices and trends. The data analysis system in place was inadequate and difficult to use. The user interface was cumbersome and the software itself was unable to handle all of the data analysis. Consequently, engineers were required to manually extract data and process it on their own PCs. This process was frustrating and very time-consuming.

Novosoft has developed a client-server internet application that can be used in conjunction with the customer's intranet, as well as with most recent technologies, including JavaTM and HTML. Having narrowed the focus of the analysis to a given problem, Novosoft developed a solution that combines numerous features of classic desktop analysis tools with the usability of internet-based tools.
