Launch Operation Business Application Monitor
Project Lead: Steve Kocher, Technical Principal
Project Description: RampView is a Java-based BAM (business activity monitoring) application that allows FedEx to monitor key aspects of its aircraft launch operation. Developed in-house and comprising a Java Swing client, JSP, J2EE, and JMS messaging, RampView captures and evaluates data from 26 FedEx operational apps, as well as from the FAA, to help keep more than 1,000 flights per day on schedule. The application includes an extensive event-processing engine to determine an event's effect on launch operations and to publish appropriate alerts when necessary.

Online Crew Training at Sea
Project Lead: John Barcy, Group Head of Development
Project Description: Fleet Management rolled out a Web-based online training application for its pool of 6,000 seafarers, allowing them to continue their education whether on land or at sea. The application is written in Java Servlets and JSP, runs on Solaris, and taps Oracle as its database. To circumvent the lack of Web access on ships, the application runs on each ship's Linux-based intranet. One of the PCs on this intranet is equipped with software to allow zipped XML e-mails to be exchanged with the central on-land database via Inmarsat satellite link.
