Platform Screenshots

Seeing is believing. These are examples of a handful of the applications companies and institutions are building on top of the NetBeans Platform, as described in their own words. For a comprehensive list, see the Partners page.

Do you have an application built on the NetBeans Platform? We'd love to include a screenshot here - mail us details!


NetBeans Platform

This is the NetBeans Platform without any IDE specific modules. You can reuse the whole windowing system, the menus, the toolbar, CVS integration, whatever you like, and exclude the rest. Then you include your business logic and windows by loading custom modules that you or other community members have created.


Boeing Shared Platform (BSP)

The Boeing Shared Platform is a logical outgrowth of building MassTk on top of the NetBeans Platform: BSP is a feature-rich platform created by factoring out the modules from MassTk that are not specific to mass properties analysis, but are useful to engineering analysis applications in general.

In addition to the NetBeans Platform, the BSP includes a number of third-party open-source libraries, as well as a number of Boeing-developed modules.

Currently there are a total of four applications being built with the BSP. Learn more...


Boeing Mass Properties Toolkit

The MassTk is an engineering analysis application by Boeing. It incorporates the functionality from several legacy mass properties analysis applications that were originally written in Java, Fortran, C, and even Perl.

MassTk is built on top of the NetBeans Platform 6.0. It provides a rich GUI with custom editors for all business objects including 2D & 3D visualization.

Boeing uses MassTk to perform payload balance solutions, loadability analysis, fuel management analysis, fuel mass property analysis, and mass distribution to finite element models. MassTk vastly improved pre- and post-processing of analyses, it has a shallower learning curve, and lower maintenance costs. Learn more...

Nokia NetAct

Nokia NetAct - click to enlarge

Nokia offers a complete solution for managing mobile networks and end-user services, called Nokia NetAct™, ranging from control-room software for 24/7/365 monitoring of the network to software for graphical optimization.Nokia NetAct™ has been delivered to more than 300 customers around the world. With the introduction of the NetBeans Platform as base for its tool development, Nokia hopes to boost the network operator's efficiency in carrying out network management tasks just in the same way as integrated development environments (IDEs) boost software development productivity.

The Topology window is an explorer for the network that is managed. Views is an explorer for the graphical views to the network. At the top right, some graphical network views are opened. The icons represent network elements, the coloring their state. In the middle right, you see an up-to-date list of alarms (problem reports) coming from the network. At the bottom right the Manual for the currently selected alarm is displayed.


MultiTrode

MultiTrode designs and manufactures pump station controllers, pump station supervisors, liquid level sensors, SCADA software and web-based monitoring and control.

MultiTrode announces PumpView V2 © built on Sun Microsystems robust J2EE platform. "Not only do we leverage the J2EE platform for PumpView, but also the Netbeans 4.1 RCP;" said Paul Gibson, Team Leader for the MultiSmart suite of products. The team at MultiTrode will release a redesigned client configuration tool called Configurator V2 ©

"We used the Netbeans 4.1 RCP as the basis for Configurator V2 ©because of its proven stability, install base and multiple platform support . Netbeans RCP delivers on its ability to allow our focus to be the application features not infrastructure," said Paul. Configurator V2 © will deploy to PumpView customers world wide. Configurator V2 was a built jointly by Kcc Tech Pty Ltd and MultiTrode. "Kcc Tech had large and small enterprise experience with the Netbeans RCP this got us going immediately and accomplish our project goals," said Paul.

Casemix

This project is developed by The Team Of Information Systems Unit, at the Hospital of the University Sains Malaysia. It is used for International Disease Code Lookup (ICD10 & ICD9) and drug table lookup.


Icasim Weight & Balance

Icasim Weight and Balance is an application based on NetBeans Platform 4.0 to calculate the centre of gravity of tactical aircraft (e.g. F/A-18) during test-flights. The software allows test pilots and test engineers to track the weights and moments of aircraft, test equipment, armament, missiles and other loads and to accurately predict and verify the travel of the centre of gravity.

studioSL

studioSL - click to enlarge Traditional ways of numerically modeling multiphase flow in oil reservoirs are based on finite element/finite difference methods. However, such methods can pose computational inefficiencies for specific modeling scenarios. Streamline- based flow simulation is an alternative to cell-based methods and can dramatically improve the computational efficiency of numerical models.

Because fluid flow simulators can be difficult to use and require significant expertise and understanding of Reservoir Engineering concepts and experience, an efficient and flexible interface between the complex numeric algorithms of the simulator and the engineer is vital for ensuring best-practice use of the software. An Interactive Development Environment (IDE) allows to rapidly adapt the interface and simplify the use of a simulator as well as help the engineer analyze output data graphically, manage large quantities of data and adjust input parameters to ensure optimal performance.

Streamsim's IDE is called studioSL and it is a NetBeans branded application written in Java using NetBeans platform's code and API's.


SmartBlobz

SmartBlobz - click to enlarge SmartBlobz is a new way to share. Aimed initially at the consumer market, SmartBlobz enables everyone to share what they want with the people they want to share with.
