Web Applications

ATL designs and maintains visually attractive, informative websites that are tailored to increase visibility, promote new business, and solicit repeat visits from interested parties. ATL-designed websites improve the overall outreach of your organization on a global scale. Our array of support services are tailored to client requirements from project beginning to end. These services include planning, design and development, and hosting; artistic layout; coding, deployment, and hosting; search and bulletin board functionality; system administration; operation and maintenance; continuing end-user support; current site upgrades; and ease of use and improved look.

ATL designs, configures, integrates, and supports web-based applications that are beneficial to any business, whether the business is growing or well established. These applications can result in substantial cost savings. During a typical system design, ATL will identify key data elements in a client's ordering and provisioning process; design an easy-to-use, multi-user ordering and tracking system; identify, configure, and integrate communications and intranet server software and equipment, as required; test the tracking system using replicas of the actual client database; import any existing client data into the new system; and train clients on the new system.

ATL designs integrated web-based document management systems using inexpensive client/server software and intuitive, document-based GUI interfaces. These web systems are capable of retrieving any document type online by reading document extensions and spawning external viewers. Document management systems allow information to be shared by all authorized users and retrieved using a variety of media through standard hyperlinks. For government clients, ATL has converted standard handbooks and manuals to web-based electronic formats readable using client specified viewers. This documentation contained embedded hyperlinks and multimedia presentations.

Features of ATL's web-based document management systems:

• Supports multimedia by retrieving and playing sounds, video, and other multimedia objects.
• Supports embedded hypertext links to local or remote documents.
• Supports hypertext areas within graphics (e.g., customized push buttons and clickable maps)
• Supports compound documents and reusable images.
• Supports SQL queries or other interactive retrieval, display, and updating of database information.
• Supports corporate-wide standardization of documentation and online interfaces.
• Supports retrieval and display of reports generated by external applications.
• Supports online forms, data entry and other two-way interactive communication between users and computers.
• Supports e-mail applications.
• Supports automatic downloading of computer files
• Supports a wide variety of search engines, with rank-ordered, clickable, automatically hyperlinked search results.
• Supports centralized or decentralized document management philosophies.
• Supports on-demand printing of desired documents on local or remote printers.

• Works on all major desktop computing platforms.
• Works in any commercial network environment supporting TCP/IP.

ATL designs, develops, deploys, and supports interactive multimedia training systems ideal for distance learning and training standardization. Our training systems can be tailored to meet training requirements as defined by the client. The systems are designed to walk new users through a procedure until they reach a high level of proficiency and are able to proceed on their own.

The system uses video, voice, and printed material to provide a user-friendly interface. The system is portable, and authorized users working at remote locations may receive training at a distance, eliminating travel expenses. Once trained using a Multimedia Training system, staff can continue to use the system as a database development and tracking tool.

Our Multimedia Training systems are designed using Toolbook, DHTML, and Javascript. These systems, which incorporate Lotus Notes, can be readily web enabled. ATL-designed Multimedia Training systems may be used to record, digitize, edit, and play digital audio files in a WAV format. The system can include both 2- and 3-D graphics as required by the training course subject matter.
