SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT FOR DEMANDING, TIME-CRITICAL APPLICATIONS
-----------------------------------------------------------------
presented by Talarian Corp., SGI and Versant

Software engineers and project managers have traditionally been 
forced to choose between productivity and performance, between 
using higher level tools and custom code.

If you are involved in building or extending distributed, high 
performance software applications we have some excellent news for 
you. Talarian's RTworks(r) is an integrated, modular tool set 
specifically designed to increase productivity and
performance.

RTworks is now being used in the following applications:

Telecommunications:  
   - Alarm management, alarm reduction, alarm correlation,
     switching center surveillance, load balancing, fraud 
     detection, on-line diagnostics

Transportation:
   - Integrated TOC, congestion detection and response, rapid 
     incident managwment, network-wide surveillance, intermodal
     transportation, real-time adaptive traffic control, 
     coordination of multiple jurisdictions, fleet management 

Aerospace:
   - C3I, telemetry, high speed test, critical fault diagnosis,
     error condition response, operations monitoring and control

Scada
   - Data collection, operations control, power distribution, 
     monitoring and control

Financial
     Help desk reporting, fraud detection, process monitoring

What You Will Learn
With new tools and hardware available, higher levels of 
performance can now be achieved. Talarian will present real-world 
customer examples and demonstrate how they addressed critical 
issues. These issues include:

What are the advantages these customers gained from using high 
level tools?
How can I use a high level tool and still meet my performance 
requirements?
How can I integrate an intelligent tool-set with my existing and 
future applications in a client/server environment?
How can I meet project deadlines with reduced staff while insuring 
quality?
How can I build more intelligent and competitive solutions?
What performance can I really expect from an intelligent system 
(benchmark data)?
If your company is developing time-critical systems you should 
know that Talarian's RTworks is the PERFORMANCE leader in 
intelligent systems.


"Our group's mission is to quickly develop leading-edge solutions 
in close collaboration with our customers and users. Within a 
short amount of time, RTworks has already provided a robust 
solution in the significant new area of  network management. This 
meets our requirement for fast turnaround of systems and saves on 
the expense of rewriting existing functionality." 
- Richard Mishra, Research Engineer, British Telecom


"At Martin Marietta, we are transferring defense-related 
technologies to provide Intelligent Vehicle Highway System 
services that meet current needs and accommodate future growth. We 
used TalarianUs RTworks as an off-the-shelf solution to help us 
build a Traffic Operation Center prototype quickly."
- Rob Harkins, IVHS Business Development Manager, Martin Marietta
