In the field of software development, there are always
efforts that go unseen because the end result is for internal use, demo use, or
proof of concept. While not readily demonstrable, these projects serve to
illustrate the depth and breadth of services that Trinity Logic can offer.
Blockware
Originally designed to be a graphical programming
language for training and modifying embedded systems. Although this project
was never fielded, the graphical front-end was an interesting exercise. Think
Visio with a kick.
BizTalk Lite
This project was an internal effort while under contract.
Although the program had nothing to do with Microsoft's offering, the spirit of
the project was to make the transfer and transformation of text files to and from
each other and databases simpler. The project used XML and XSLT extensively,
along with SQL XML.
Smart Client Prototype
This project was designed to replace a legacy VB
application. Some of the design constraints were quite challenging.
It had to behave the same regardless of Internet connectivity. The solution
involved hosting the ASP.NET runtime inside the Winforms .NET application to take
advantage of the flexibility, dynamicism and presentation options available through
HTML that are not inherently possible, or practical, with Winforms. Today,
this solution would be easier using XAML... but it was not an option at the time.
Sound Effects Generator
This project was designed to provide community and
educational theaters with a sound effects system for plays and concerts. The
system makes use of DirectX technology to allow the multiple sound effects to be
triggered and layered as required during the performance. The project has
been used personally, but never released to the public.
