Application Development

Everything HIME Technology builds for its clients meets the exacting rigor of a commercial software product. In other words, we design solutions that are flexible, scalable, configurable, and highly manageable so the organization can leverage the technology to maximize responsiveness to business changes. From discovery to delivery, our best practices such as iterative release cycles, and simultaneous Quality Assurance (QA) ensure the delivery of high quality results.

HIME Technology's experience with Microsoft's .NET technology is unparalleled.

We have written .NET software for platforms ranging from Pocket PCs to Enterprise Server Clusters. Guided by our senior project management teams, HIME Technology's engineers are experts in various Microsoft and database technologies. We have extensive experience in developing software using Microsoft's .NET platform, including ASP.NET, WebService, XML, C++, and many more.

HIME Technology specializes in building client dedicated teams and has solid technical competencies in J2EE development running in a variety of technical environments.

For example, Hime Technologystaff comprises the majority of development staff supporting an enterprise level ticketing system running on IBM Websphere, using J2EE/Stuts and DB2. Additionally, Hime Technologyrecently developed a mortgage compliance product for a client using J2EE/stuts/hibernate running on a Resin application server tied to MS SQL Server. We recently kicked-off a project to better automate a client's product configuration, enabling cost effective customization for a variety of partners in the banking industry. This system runs on BEA Weblogic 8.1, and will be moving to JBoss in the near future. We also employed JavaServerFaces technology for front end development and Oracle database technology.

Our service is designed to meet development request of full life cycle project which covers 4 phases: inception, elaboration, construction and transition phase. With the methodology of Rational Unified Process (RUP) and 8 years practice, we aim to minimize project risk as much as we can.

How to eliminate overall risk?

How to guarantee the deliverable is exactly what you request?

How to avoid endless delay?

• Risk driven iterative / incremental development

Dividing project into iteration could mitigate some risks between Iterations. This approach enables both the client and the development team to keep identifying, scaling, managing and tracking the risks and their priorities constantly by iteration. The larger the project, the more critical and necessary it is.

• Case driven development

In order to avoid poor requirement management, use case could be a good means of design, development and test.

• Requirement management

Most possibly, not all desirable requirements could be squeezed into project scope with limited time, budget and resources. Priority principle guarantees important features of the software product which benefit the client’s business most.

• Useful practice of project management tool

PMS (Project Management System), a web-based project tracking tool, enables the client, development team and QA department 100% visibility of project progress, quality and productivity by iteration. Any tiny delay or possible delay would trigger a prompt plan adjustment to avoid further worsening.

• Continuous quality assurance

Continuous integration and frequent delivery from initial phase of the project benefit risk control, requirement management, progress tracking and quality assurance. Code checking tool may be used to ensure coding conventions. Code checking tool may be used to ensure coding conventions.

• Architecture centered design

Core of this approach is to build a robust architecture for the product. It results in not only low cost and short delivery time, but also easier maintenance and extension in the future.
