Modules

Reservation Module

Reservation module is a browser-based application developed in Java to make and manage reservations for broadband Internet access from any room in the premises. User can check the availability of connectivity for a particular room for a particular date and time. If there is availability, user can book Internet access for that customer in his/her room at the requested time.

Availability and statistics about the reservations are displayed graphically. It also includes administration feature to define the access control and other system parameters like bill server network addresses. Emphasis is given on a very easy-to-use intuitive Graphical User Interface, which any front office clerk can use conveniently. In addition, Java Charts, calendar and schedule management components are incorporated in this system.

Real-Time Scheduler

This is a real-time Internet Access scheduler which interacts with the database and communicates with network box. It scans the reservations entered by Reservation Module from the database, and opens as well as closes the ports and connections automatically according to the schedules made. Thus, it enables automatic connection and disconnection for a room, based on the reservation information entered.

After serving the schedule for a customer, it also communicates with 1 to 5 different Billing Servers and carbon copy servers for sending billing information. It communicates with servers and network box using XML via HTTP implementation over TCP/IP. It also involves XML Parser usage.

“The Elegant MicroWeb redesign of our site has really helped our sales.

“ElegantJ Business Intelligence played a pivotal role helping my team tap into the huge amount of timekeeping data our firm had assiduously collected over several years, but which we had extracted very little value from. We realised that with ElegantJ BI we could gain an insight into our business performance and trends which we were then able to present to Management in a digestible form. As a direct result of our analysis using ElegantJ BI we were able to ensure that scarce resources were ring-fenced for critical operations whilst also freeing up resource from other areas to improve productivity and allocate costs more accurately across our operations. ElegantJ BI proved an excellent partner, listening to and taking our feedback on-board, then delivering changes and improvements to the product.”

Elegant MicroWeb has done that for us since day one – five years ago! Without our strategic alliance with Elegant MicroWeb, I doubt if we would have become #1 supplier of eDemocracy and eConsultation solutions.
