We’re building an Excel Add-in (XLL) for Lloyds TSB which allows further add-in functionality to be written as managed code (e.g. in C#).
This project is being run on a “time and materials” basis from our Guildford office and we’ve negotiated to keep the IP rights of the underlying managed XLL shell for possible later resale or use in a product.
We’ve been engaged by an Online Gaming Company that is using The Server Framework to refactor and redesign their reliable UDP implementation, based on ENet, so that it’s more efficient and performs better with the asynchronous design of The Server Framework.
In addition they want us to build them a custom CLR Hosting solution within their server so that their games can be written in managed code but the networking layer can leverage the power of C++ for their reliable UDP layer.
We’re engaged in ongoing work with our Industrial Control Client.
Refactoring and redesigning the TCP connectivity layer of their industrial device control system and refactoring and multi-threading a DDE connectivity component.
Len is also designing and developing a high performance data acquisition system that connects as a client to their monitoring server and streams data to a SQL Server database for later analysis.
Len is back working with the Commerzbank Bonds and Money Markets teams in London with their Excel add-ins, C++ CORBA system and Java servers.
Len originally created much of this for them back in 2001 and is back to help guide the team in adding some new functionality.
We’ve been engaged to extend The Server Framework so that it fully supports UDP and to provide example servers for this International VOIP Company.
We’re working with PayPoint again to build them another ISO8583 transaction processing server using The Server Framework.
We’re building a high performance TCP/IP auction server system for their web based car auctions using The Server Framework.
We’re happy to be helping Commerzbank in London with their FX trading system again.
Due to staff turnover Len’s back, part time, to help mentor the new team members and help with bug fixing and testing.
Len is working with CSFB’s HYDRA team to design and develop a trade events server for them in C++ on Windows.
The whole development is being developed in a Test Driven Development style and the server will reduce load on downstream systems by caching results from market data servers, perfoming trade enrichment only when data changes.
We’re producing a custom application server shell, using The Server Framework, for the Traveltainment AG. web team.
