"With VeriSight,
we combine massive amounts of healthcare data, such as medical
and pharmacy claims, in a highly secure and confidential environment.
JWAVE gives us the performance and powerful image display capabilities
we required for valuable, real-time visualization of that data."
-Brian LeClaire, Vice
President and Chief Technology Officer, Humana
JWAVE™ is the PV-WAVE® Web
Development Environment for network-based visual data analysis
applications. With JWAVE's multiple graphics and visualization
techniques, users can rapidly analyze, visualize and share critical
information across the organization, regardless of the computer
platform.
JWAVE is based on a multi-tiered architecture that enables developers
to easily create applications that embrace open standards and will
grow as an organization grows. Whether developing applications using
the Java programming language or HTML and Java Server Pages, JWAVE
lets users perform numerical analysis and visual interpretation of
large, complex data sets from all over the world by harnessing the
power of the internet.
Using the JWAVE Server users can create a centralized repository
for updating and maintaining applications. The JWAVE Server handles
very large data sets and allows storage of all application logic
on the server, where it belongs.
With this unique server, Java programs with JWAVE components can
be run locally or over the Internet and intranet. Graphics, numerics
commands and data are sent to the server, which retrieves both the
numerical results and graphics and then displays the output.
Using JWAVE's powerful graphics components programmers can easily
create data visualization applications written in Java. Data and
graphics commands are sent to a PV-WAVE server from a Java client.
PV-WAVE then generates a graphics file that is returned to the Java
client and displayed.
JWAVE includes the Bar3D Bean component, which produces 3-D bar
charts, as well as JWAVE Beans for producing the following graphics:
Using JWAVE's numerics components, developers
can send numerics commands and data from a Java client application
to a PV-WAVE server. Results are then returned to the Java client.
Any number of variables of any data type can be transferred between
PV-WAVE and the Java program. With JWAVE, programmers can access existing
PV-WAVE code and perform all of the operations normally performed with
PV-WAVE. For example, developers might use the PV-WAVE Signal Processing™ package
to write a Java-based signal processing applet.
