Tebet Business Solutions finds that wizards have limited use since they often generate inefficient or difficult to maintain code that doesn't conform to our or industry endorsed standards. Wizards are also designed for simple tasks: anything out of the ordinary or more complicated requires the programmer to still write code. Any slight speed advantage to the wizard method of developing applications is more than offset by the 'proper' code being easier to read, debug, test and maintain.

For Web designing and publishing, we use HTML hard-coding, Homesite and Macromedia Dreamweaver. All of the above generate very clean HTML code that meets W3C validation standards. For Web graphics and Logos, we use Adobe Photoshop, ImageReady and Illustrator. They provide clear, compressed graphics that load fast so as not to keep your visitors waiting.

The pattern for our newer software development is to use C# for the user interface and C++ for the numerical kernel. Most of the older software on this site was developed using fortran. See our resources page for more details. This site was developed using ASP.NET, C#, and SQL Server 2000. We use FeedSpring to maintain our RSS feed.

No. They won't have to do anything different than they already do. They just need to receive and open your e-mail or receive your faxes.

Tebet Business Solutions uses Microsoft Access for small desktop systems that don't require major security controls. For larger, more robust systems or systems requiring stringent security controls, we use Microsoft SQL Server. Access dominates the desktop database market. SQL Server has a large and ever increasing slice of the business database market. Apart from the wide-spread developer and user support for each application, we simply believe each is the best in its target market.

We used S-PLUS (Mathsoft) for statistical modelling and Arc/Info (ESRI) for GIS. We used a lot of Unix shell tools and Perl scripts for database manipulation, calculation, and web-translation. We'd like to make special mention of the "rpart" module (classification and regression tree software) developed for S-PLUS by Terry Therneau and Elizabeth Atkinson of the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota (biostat-info@mayo.edu).

Our simulator, PICAT, is a virtual machine which acts and responds like the real thing. Each simulator provides over 60 defect scenarios in which the employee must make adjustments to the machine, material, or controller to correct the problem. As the participant progresses to the complex defect scenarios, they develop a more logical approach to troubleshooting as well as more confidence in their abilities.

Tebet Business Solutions uses Microsoft Visual Basic (version 6 or .NET) or Microsft C# for all of its custom software development. Visual Basic has wide-spread developer support and is easy to use, with extensive on-line help and examples. Other languages may be better suited for specialised applications (eg C or C++ for embedded controllers), but we find VB easier to use and quicker for the development of business software.

Damn good question. As near as we can tell, they are the people who almost never see the light of day in order to code (or echoall) for your MUDding pleasure.

Because, in conjunction with CityDesk, they are so much more than simple webdesign templates. They generate a complete, interlinked website, not a single webpage, with one click and let you make the design modifications in no time.

I use Macromedia Flash MX for all of the cartoons. If you can get your hands on it, try it out, but it tends to be expensive (I lucked out and got a copy from my dad). If you want to learn how to use it, there're a lot of great tutorials online (picking up a book is a great idea too). One good site I'd recommend is actionscripts.org. For recording voices, I use Goldwave, but only because it was a free download and I'm not yet fed up with it begging me to register.

Ans: In case we lack an exact development environment (e.g., O/S version, libraries, or database), we do development remotely by logging onto your system over a secured VPN. All work is done through a secured network from our development lab. Even if we have the exact development environment as yours, we often use VPN for checking code in and out, delivering code, and some times testing.

We use Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Acrobat, 3D modeling and animation packages, Shockwave, Flash and DeBabelizer as our main graphics and photo manipulation tools. Programming tools include basic HTML editors, Dreamweaver, ColdFusion, and ASP. Other software that helps us offer a wealth of options includes Director, Authorware, Premiere, and QuarkXpress.

For the creative design, we use Adobe PhotoShop. For the development of your site, we use Macromedia Dreamweaver, Macromedia Flash and Microsoft Visual Studio .NET.

We have done and are doing fairly complicated projects (involving 10-20 team members in a project over a period of more than a year). The number of lines of code varied anywhere between few thousand lines of code to more than couple of million lines (however it depends on what type of code/system you are referring to .NET, Java, C++, C, OO, Assembly, Oracle, FoxPro, VB, etc.).

The .NET Framework SDK is free and includes command-line compilers for C++, C#, and VB.NET and various other utilities to aid development. Microsoft Visual Studio Express editions are cut-down versions of Visual Studio, for hobbyist or novice developers.There are different versions for C#, VB, web development etc. Originally the plan was to charge $49, but MS has decided to offer them as free downloads instead, at least until November 2006.

Developing this web site and putting it together piece by piece has been an incredibly challenging and rewarding experience. I have learnt so much. For those that are interested, I have put together a list of the most valuable resources used along the way. Click here to check it out.

Yes. It is perfect for designers who want to offer their customers a high-quality design and also save time and money. Mind that when you purchase the template with oridnary or exclusive licence you're entitled to create only one project (one domain name).

OSHA reviewed existing ergonomics practices and programs, State OSHA programs, as well as available scientific information, to develop the guidelines. OSHA also met with stakeholders to gather information on the ergonomic problems present in the nursing home environment and the practices that have been used successfully in the industry. OSHA disseminated draft guidelines for public comment on August 30, 2002.

Yes, absolutely. Feel also free to contact me at the email address below if you are having any problems, questions or you need anything special.

I began many years ago, about 1987. I bought my first computer becouse I needed to run a software, Quick Ceph, for cephalometric traces, that are measurements on cranial structure, useful for treatment plannig in orthodontics. After a while I realized that it would be used for a lot of other things, so I started to transfer some parts of my cases-history on the Mac, using a simple database software, called FileMaker.

This always depends on the size of the development but we provide an estimated development time in our proposal. We also offer expedited services for rush jobs.

We cover much of the spectrum of modern software. In addition to standard Windows and Web/Database applications, we also develop games, device drivers, image/audio processing systems, Pocket PC, Flash animation, MS Office and AutoCAD plug-ins, and embedded real time systems. We are also capable of limited electronics design and development. Yes, we have programmers who can read schematics!

Yes, it's entirely the creation of Tembria. We saw the need for easy-to-use, affordable server monitor software knew that we could do it better than the competition.

Yes, Specifications for software development are provided by the Department to develop software for filing of returns for sales and use tax, solid waste and surcharge, unemployment tax, and communications services tax.
