Are there any FOCUS applications within Digital that could be used as a reference for a customer? I have just had a request for reference site info from one of our major customers in the UK. Thanks Chris

In IBI's FOCUS newsletter for MAY, I found the following :- " A recently published issue of FOCUS NEWS (USA) detailed an application in use with Digital Equip Co. Tracking order details across the USA this system is accessed by sales groups. Currently 900 people have been trained to access some 1,000,000 blocks of data in FOCUS files. Ultimately RMS and Rdb files will be used within the system." I have no idea who the developers/contacts are in the U.S. In the UK there are also several projects which use FOCUS, but most of them have not yet gone 'Live'. Please contact me for possible UK applications. | |||||

The application mentioned is none other than the Area Information Center (AIC), described briefly (with contact names) in 69.1! | |||||

Although we don't like to advertise it (too much work to do) - the AIC has been used as a reference on several occassions - most notable Bell-Atlantic, Inman Steel, and Poloraid. MDS out of Westford has also been used in demos - most notably at DECWORLD. -rpr- |
