CALGARY, Oct. 8, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Calgary Scientific Inc., a company known for creating transformative technology for the medical industry and beyond, is pleased to announce the release of PureWeb® 4.0. This latest version makes it faster to develop advanced software applications on web and mobile devices . It rapidly transforms workstation, desktop and client-server software without completely re-writing the code. This new release leverages the latest HTML5 standard to deliver high-performance and complex applications online. PureWeb also keeps data secure on servers or in the cloud, alleviating big data and security concerns.
With this latest release, developers have the flexibility to create either native apps or HTML5 applications that run directly in browsers. They can now write client software that gives their users instant access across devices from a single code base, without the need for browser plug-ins or submissions to app stores. This is valuable in an array of industries, including medical imaging, simulation, energy, manufacturing and scientific research.
"We're excited to put our seismic interpretation software on web-enabled devices such as tablets and cell phones by leveraging tools like PureWeb," said Ed VanWieren, CEO, SeisWare International Inc. " PureWeb reduces the cost and time to support those devices, and it provides a toolkit to simplify interfaces due to limited screen space. This has great value for our customers by giving them flexibility with our product. Managers can do presentations anywhere and end users can remotely collaborate with their team members."
PureWeb's 4.0 SDK provides software developers the following additional benefits:
- The option to use one code base across all devices
- Create hybrid solutions that combine both native and HTML5 applications
- Write once and publish to many platforms
- New image formats to meet different needs
- Enhanced performance
"With the latest support for HTML5 in modern browsers, it is now possible to build applications that run on multiple devices from one code base." said Pierre Lemire, President and CTO of Calgary Scientific. "With PureWeb, the task for developers is simplified so they can focus on the features of their application, rather than building the underlying infrastructure."
Watch the video to see how PureWeb works and how SeisWare was enabled by PureWeb . Visit Calgary Scientific at AWS in Las Vegas at booth 212 or RSNA at booth 5509 where PureWeb 4.0 will be shown.
