With the augmentation of IT sector, one of the most puzzling things in high technology especially for business executives' is the software development process. The myriad process of software development project can have endless resources, yet there never seems to be an end in sight. Examining the project progress can be like peering into the darkness of a seemingly bottomless pit.



The technology world is like a vast pool with embedded devices acting as a special-purpose system in which the computer is completely encapsulated by the device it controls. Set-top boxes, PDAs, medical equipment, factory automation equipment, and mobile phones are some of the examples of embedded devices.

The EmPresent Algorithm

HCL, a well-known IT firm has global partnerships with several leading Fortune 1000 companies, including technology firms. HCL has well-known products like EmPresent and Presenter. EmPresent is an example of embedded devices. EmPresent is a smart GUI toolkit with powerful Visual Editor for faster and parallel development of GUI with rich set of widgets to build a powerful embedded multilingual Graphical User Interface (GUI), giving independence from platforms to embedded application developers.

EmPresent's existing relationship with partners has enhanced their estimation and generated value for them. EmPresent offers world-class product support to its customers via web, fax, phone and e-mail. A large Japanese Organization manufacturing Door phones & Security phones is using EmPresent for good graphical displays for their security phones.

EmPresent is small, stable and has a scalable Windowing System specifically optimized and designed for embedded devices. EmPresent event driven architecture delivers a small footprint for embedded Windowing System. It is for developers who want to use the graphical editing tools and interactive design environment to develop embedded application interfaces. Empresent has some of the essential features like application simulation, powerful API, adaptation subsystem, advanced graphics, peripheral device, customizable UI, automated code generation, and multilingual support.

About GUI (Graphical User Interface) Toolkit

The Graphical User Interface, or GUI, is a centralized data collections and analysis system that offers the modern manufacturer the opportunity to enhance Lean principles in their operations. For Lean operations, the GUI helps to eliminate waste and enhance just-in-time production. To this end, the shop floor GUI is particularly important for the implementation of a total enterprise resource planning (ERP) conversion.

EmPresent GUI Toolkit has three basic components:

?Visual Editor

?EmPresent GUI Libraries

?Simulator

Why use EmPresent?..

We live in a world where technology is advancing at a high pace. To make our work easier EmPresent addresses a number of challenges faced by embedded application developers. These challenges could be:

* Creating sophisticated user interfaces for embedded devices using libraries or primitive tools forcing the developer to write substantial amounts of custom code.

* Working on applications that are typically tied to a processor and OS.

* Factoring in time to wait for the hardware to get ready to test the application.

* Dealing with the absence of a common development environment with which one could develop maintainable and re-usable application code.
