What does open source mean?

Open source refers to software whose source code is publicly known and can be viewed by third parties. The software can be modified by any user and can usually be used free of charge. The relational database management system PostgreSQL is a popular example of open source software.

 

When does soXes rely on open source?

The advantage of open source software is the open source code. This can be adapted during the development of a new application if necessary. In addition, the components, which can usually be used free of charge, reduce development costs. In order to increase the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of projects, soXes uses open source components wherever possible.

 

Where has soXes used open source?

soXes uses open source software on a daily basis and employs it in many projects. For example, soXes used the open source database management system PostgreSQL in the development of the medication management system for Wiegand AG. With the powerful DBMS, the performance requirements were met and development costs were reduced.

MyKPI
Kunde: Thomas Billeter, Seestatt Experts
Applikation: MyKPI
Technologie: Python, Angular JS, Web2Py, mySQL, SCRUM

For myKPI, soXes has co-developed the Finpilot software. Finpilot is the ideal tool for corporate planning, monitoring and reporting. This fully integrated and powerful software includes and links all financial and non-financial metrics. It provides all required reports including P&L, cash flow and balance sheet, as well as user-defined summaries of company performance. The solution is agile, i.e. has been developed (empirically enhanced) with the SCRUM process model for over 3.5 years.

Kunde: Civil engineering office of the canton of Zug Department of Road Maintenance
Applikation: smartBSAzg
Technologie: Python, Django, NGinx, MySQL, Angular, ag-grid, XML, React Native

The Electrical Engineering Department of the Canton of Zug Civil Engineering Office is responsible for the planning, construction, operation and maintenance of the operating and safety equipment (BSA) of the cantonal roads.

The electrotechnical operating and safety equipment (BSA) of the cantonal roads in the canton of Zug shall become smart.

All BSAs of the Canton of Zug, which are located on the cantonal roads or in technical premises, must be clearly identifiable by means of a plant identification system (ACS).

Already today, all BSA elements of the canton of Zug are clearly marked. However, the existing coding was no longer sufficient. In smartBSAzg, the BSA will receive an extended AKS coding.
The new AKS code is formed from 14 segments according to AKS-ZG+, which also allows the dynamic coding of data points.

soXes has received the order to develop a web-based BSA tool. In the smart BSA tool, all BSAs are to be inventoried. smartBSAzg contains the static master data, which can be dynamically synchronized with connected peripheral systems (UeKS and UeLS) via XML interface.

New and changed BSA data should be automatically synchronized with surrounding systems. An XML-based interface is to be built, which allows daily data synchronization with surrounding systems.

Within the scope of this project, soXes has also developed a mobile app that allows to read all captured BSA data by scanning the data matrix on the on-site BSA signs.

 

 

Arbitrage Trading Tool
Kunde: Provider in DeFi Sektor
Applikation: Arbitrage Trading Tool
Technologie: Blockchain, .NET, ASP.NET, Angular JS, C#, Excel, JavaScript, REST, SQL Server

A provider of decentralized financial products operates a platform for cryptocurrencies, which was to be supplemented with a tool for arbitrage trading. The tool was to be based on a trading algorithm and thus function autonomously, making it possible for customers to passively generate income. soXes was commissioned with the implementation of this project.

In arbitrage trading of a cryptocurrency, the price differences on the different exchanges are exploited by buying the cryptocurrency from the cheapest provider and reselling it from the most expensive one. The price difference remains as profit.

For the algorithmic implementation of this trading method, the various exchanges must first be accessed. All prices from these are then collected and fed into the algorithm, which makes the specific buy and sell decisions. Due to the high volatility of cryptocurrency prices, fast access times and efficient algorithms are critical for the successful operation of the tool. Here, soXes was able to draw on a lot of experience in the fintech sector and build a stable and high-performance application using ASP.NET and C#.

With the help of the tool, end customers can now automate time-consuming arbitrage trading and use their crypto assets to passively generate income. The algorithm was designed in such a way that the tool can be easily used by anyone without any prior knowledge.

Wiegand
Kunde: Wiegand AG
Applikation: Wiegand
Technologie: JAVA, SOA, SQL, Java Script, Angular JS, Python, Phone Gap, Mobile, Unit Test, Build Server

Wiegand AG, based in Bülach, specializes in drug management and hospital logistics. It develops concepts for medication processes, storage and transport of medication and consumables in hospitals and homes.
 
In a comprehensive IT project of more than 2 years duration, with a team of 7 developers, Wiegand AG has commissioned soXes to develop a secure, fast and reliable system that ensures the management of medication in hospitals. This comprehensive system is based on four pillars: WMCC (central management server) WMPS (directional station), WM5R (mobile device for dispensing) and the MedManager Cockpit (WMCP)
 
The WMPS straightening station is primarily concerned with the electronic support of the set-up or preparation of medication. Via 2D barcode readers, all medications for straightening are identified and managed - including LOT and expiry dates, if available. Step by step, the straightening station guides the nursing staff both when straightening medication into the distribution dispenser and when providing individual medication. The electronic prescription provides information about the medication, preparation and dispensing. Straightening and dispensing activities are compared with the time axis. Traffic light functions signal the urgency status of the activities.
 
WM5R is a mobile app that runs on various operating systems and devices. It ensures that medication can be traced back to the patient's bedside, thus ensuring traceability and medication safety by allowing the dispensing process to be logged directly at the patient's bedside. The WM5R app implements the 5-R rule: right patient, right drug, right dosage, right application, right time.  Both the entries from the WMPS and the WM5R are automatically fed back into the hospital system.
 
The WMM environment can be managed with the web application WMCP Cockpit. In addition to user and group administration and an overview of patients and prescriptions, this includes a very large part of logistics. The entire supply of the pharmacy and central warehouse as well as the ward can be monitored and coordinated via WMCP. The staff has an overview of the stock levels of all wards everywhere and at any time via a web-based interface. Orders are automatically triggered or manually released and transmitted to the purchasing system. Thus, every material movement is automatically saved (date, user, patient). Evaluations per package, LOT, expiration date, etc. make it possible to trace the movements in detail. The automatic ordering procedure is a central component of this solution and is implemented based on three principles:
1. directional station: according to the dispensations (consumption), the system determines a forecast of the future demand for a drug.
2. kanban: orders are automatically triggered when stock levels fall below a certain level.
3. autoinventory: special cabinets with scales, especially for consumables, allow a completely automatic warehouse, which determines the stock and the necessary orders by weight.
 
The Wiegand drug management system is based on the Java programming language with a PostgreSQL database in the background for WMCC and WMPS. The WMCP was implemented with Python on the server and AngularJS, Bootstrap and HTML5 on the frontend. The WM5R app runs under Phonegap (Apache Cordova) on all major mobile platforms. Throughout Switzerland, the system has already been successfully implemented in several hospitals and connected to the local hospital information and prescription system, while maintaining the HL7 (Health Level 7 an international standard for the exchange of data between health care organizations and their computer systems) standard.
