Benefits
From the press release:
“By utilizing Microsoft’s Windows Presentation Foundation, incorporating three-dimensional graphics, live charts, transparency, and animation, we have created novel visualizations for complex, real-time data feeds, enabling rich user interaction,” said Daniel Chait, co-founder and managing director, Lab49. ”LongView Live will provide users with a smooth and scalable platform that presents data, not just information.”
“Linedata Services and Lab49 have applied Microsoft’s Windows Presentation Foundation technology to create an interface that is truly innovative and uniquely user-centric for the order-management space,” said Stevan Vidich, U.S. capital markets industry technology strategist, Microsoft Corp. “This approach changes the order management system user-interface from something that looks like the control board for a factory into an easy-to-read visual interface reminiscent of a cockpit for a fighter jet.”
