Solution: ScienceSoft developed the application which main goal is to create a database of handheld devices that may be compatible with Musiwave products based on presence of API and that are compatible with Musiwave products based on functional testing of technological bricks. The application tests the presence of APIs and lists them using properties and class loading and performs functional test and benchmarking (speed tests) based on technological bricks. Results of the tests are displayed on the device's screen and uploaded to the server in XML format.

MIDP Audio Test Benches
Customer: Musiwave (France)
Challenge: Musiwave is creating a new music paradigm. The mobile arena is opening up a vast new range of music consumption patterns. Musiwave transforms music in order to make it more intuitive, personal, enjoyable, interactive and user-friendly for mobile phone owners.
Solution: ScienceSoft developed the application, which main goal is to ensure compatibility of handsets with audio files, encoded in different formats, or mime-types. The application tests the downloaded AudioTest will download a XML file containing:
- A list of: URLs pointing to audio clip, label to be displayed on screen, mime type, downloadable attribute
If no XML is loaded, a default XML embedded in application will be used. If user loads a new XML it will overwrite previous one

MultipartytalkInTouch
Customer: Multipartytalk Ltd. (UK)
Challenge: "Multipartytalk" is the application developed by Multipartytalk Ltd. The purpose of the application is to manage the creation and routing of calls into the Multipartytalk global network of local PSTN access numbers. The application connects the mobile phone user with one or more parties on a voice call, without using the default address book or calling dialing software from the phone vendor. Multipartytalk calls a local dial in PSTN access telephone number in any of over 20 countries and sends a dial string command to a central switching centre that then terminates the call to the user's specified destination.
Solution: ScienceSoft has modified and tested the application to work under BlackBerry OS for Blackberry devices and on MIDP2 phones from Sony Ericsson to Motorola.
ScienceSoft has made the application more user-friendly by adding the following features: easy contacts search, copy contacts from phone memory, data storage management, and set of alerts to guide new users of the application.

CCP Connect Mobile
Client: Kubsys S.A. (Luxembourg)
Challenge: The customer needed the complete re-development of the old back-office banking application, used for administration of various types of bank and Internet clients' accounts, to meet the enhanced requirements to the system. The second goal was to move this banking application to mobile phones & PDA.
Solution: ScienceSoft managed to create a stand-alone system, interface-compatible with the old SWING version of application, but additionally to ensure enhanced and more flexible functionality and clear architecture leveling. High importance was placed on security - all fields were validated, all known vulnerabilities were closed, data was encrypted. Complete compatibility with an old DB was secured. Further the team reused the core system to migrate the application to the mobile environment.
Result: The application is successfully used to manage 200 000 accounts of the National bank of Luxembourg.
Technologies and tools: Stand-alone version: WebSphere 5.1/AIX; Oracle 8, Spring 1.2.x, Struts 1.2, Hibernate 3.0.5, JSTL, JDBC, SiteMesh, Eclipse 3.1
