Custom Programming: Advanced Modeling System

The Advanced Modeling System is a visual information platform designed to assist individuals or project teams easily work with complex information systems.

  • Graphical Interface for Databases: Instead of going screen to screen to add or maintain data or to find information, AMS represents data elements through Intelligent Objects which are icons on the Workspace. Click on an icon and the screen for that Object is presented. Relationships between Objects is easily accomplished by attaching the icons on the Workspace with connecting arrows.
  • Intuitive and Easy to Use: The learning curve for using AMS is very short as the graphical interface is immediately recognizable. Drag an Object icon onto the Workspace and click it to access its data, its that easy.
  • Operating System for Complex Models: AMS is also an operating system for complex models. For example, current applications combine engineering knowledge with AMS to supply a user with the information needed to manage complex assets in real time. AMS allows the creation of a model in a much more powerful system than a spreadsheet.
  • Support Features are Built In: Important features such as Security and Data Transfer are part of the included Automation Software Engines. Also included is DMS's powerful MS Office automation that can dynamically create Excel spreadsheets, adding rows and columns as needed. These reports can appear as custom spreadsheets and users have the choice to include formulas or not.
  • Plug-In Features: AMS supports custom software through plug-in modules. If a specific capability is not present, DMS can add this to the AMS platform as an Intelligent Software Engine. Current plug-in modules include software to assist in the management of complex assets and are part of the Advanced Modeling System.
  • Lightweight Design: AMS and its applications can reside on a laptop, desktop system or on a network. Users can be working on a LAN or away from the network, depending on the needs of an application.

Components of the Workspace Database Structure:

  • Data Input: WDS can receive data from a variety of sources; the key is not to reenter data if it already exists.
  • Intelligent Software Engines: Specific applications require specific software capabilities. DMS has several software engines that support a wide variety of applications. For examples see the current applications that take advantage of the Advanced Modeling System .
  • Automation Software Engines: Built in features of AMS are designed to handle support tasks for all applications.
  • Reports: Output from AMS can be specifically targeted to the need of an application.
  • Storage: Both local and central data storage is designed into AMS. This allows users to operate the AMS off of a LAN, on a laptop and still, using the Data Transfer Engine, send and receive projects with a project team.
