Software: IBM VisualAge 3.0 for Smalltalk
Project : Development of a client/server application for managing middle term
bonds (Kassenobligationen). A customer is going into a bank and wants
to buy bonds. He is saying his account number and the investment sum
to a co-worker of the bank. The co-worker is filling in the data into
the client application. With the account number the client/server
application is fetching all other data like name, address and
accounts of the customer from a mainframe. After having checked the
credit history of the customer, the client/server application is
printing out the deed and is doing the necessary bookkeeping. There
are about 40 clients (PC, Windows) and 1 server. The client is
programmed with VisualAge 3.0 for Smalltalk and the server is a Sun
workstation with Unix and an Oracle 7.0 Database. Our team consisted
of three co-workers, one was responsible for the server side, the
other two for the client side. My part was on the client side. I was
responsible for the lower parts of the application. I designed and
programmed the connection between the clients and the server and the
connection between the client and the mainframe. The programming was
done with Smalltalk.
