Presentation layer

This layer is responsible for controlling interactivity between the user and the system and for displaying the business logic to the user through graphic components. In SoftExpert Suite, the user interacts directly with the system through a workstation browser by means of authentication.

 

SoftExpert Suite uses a set of technologies such as JavaScript, CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), HTML, and Java in the interface to provide the end user with a rich (rich internet application) and interactive experience.

 

It is important to point out that it is not necessary to install any SoftExpert Suite client application on the workstations. In other words, it is only necessary to access the application URL through the browser. That way, all components and services the user needs will be executed by the browser or, if needed, they will be downloaded automatically. Except PDF Viewer .NET, which depends only on the .NET Framework installation, and the DWG viewers, which depend on the SEPreview.msi installation.

 

For the solution to work correctly, the workstation must meet the minimum requirements listed in the SoftExpert Suite - System requirements document.

The use of remote terminals (Citrix, Microsoft Terminal Services) is transparent for the solution. To operate perfectly, the server must be duly dimensioned for the use.
