Publisher review:ARP - the Open Source Pattern-Based Rich Internet Application (RIA) Framework for the Flash Platform. One of the biggest problems facing Rich Internet Application (RIA) developers today is how to architect their applications so that they are maintainable, scalable and can be efficiently developed in a team team-environment.
Using the Ariaware RIA Platform (ARP) and the ARP methodology you applications will immediately benefit from the lightweight, pattern-based best-practices architecture provided by ARP.
In essence, ARP answers the most difficult questions for you and provides you with a solid, tested foundation to build your applications upon.
Modern RIA teams contain an eclectic mix of developers, including UI designers, Flash and Flex developers, J2EE (or PHP, ASP.NET, .etc.) developers, database developers, etc. In such teams, communication is a key factor in determining project success.
Many Flash developers know only how to communicate in Flash-centric concepts such as the timeline and code scattered on movie clips. This makes it difficult for other members of the team, who have more traditional OOP knowledge in languages such as Java or C# to communicate with the client-side developers.
The pattern-based structure of ARP makes it easy to talk about the client in standard patterns that are instantly recognizable to seasoned software engineers familiar in other OOP environments.
The pattern-based architecture of ARP also makes it possible for large teams to work effectively on the same project, allowing for the clear delegation of responsibilities and communication through familiar patterns. It even allows server-side developers to help with certain parts of the clients (for example to create the Value Objects and Business Delegates.)
ARP framework 2.0.2 is a Flash script for Earth Sciences scripts design by ARP.
It runs on following operating system: Windows / Linux / Mac OS / BSD / Solaris.
