Notificat4Engine
The Notification Engine as currently implemented is a composite of Intersection (Intersect4) and Notification engines. It facilitates the apprehension of intersection of Interest and Asset in a digital market place and builds on this to provide a flexible architecture for notifying affected actors of the intersection. Notification, in this context, could take many forms, including eMail; Mail; Fax; Pager. This is a service that is missing in most eCommerce Portals today, Notification is either totally absent, or one-way only. In any Service and/or Product exchange Portal, there is a responsibility to provide all participants with as perfect a picture of the market as possible. This results in better decision making, and a dynamic but regular, balance between supply and demand. By combining the services of the Intersect4EngineTM and the Notificat4EngineTM it is hoped, to fill the niche for effective information dissemination in hyper-active eCommerce Portals.


Synchronisat4Engine
In any online Exchange that deals with tangible assets, be they Products and/or Services, there is sometimes a need, after agreement is reached, but before/after payment is made, to schedule an offline meeting to effect an inspection, transfer or exchange. At other times, there may be a discrepancy between what is offered, and what is tendered. In either case, there is a need for synchronisation, in the face of disparity. The Synchronisation Engine provides facilities primarily for organising online/offline meetings between intersected parties, but also provides a mechanism for deriving agreement between two or more Entities, on one or more attributes. The engine effects a number of concentric sets of attribute values, moving parties towards a point of convergence.


Addendum
These technologies under-pin many of the company's internal and external sites, and many clients will already have the benefit of these designs in the deliveries to them. These designs provide efficient solutions to common problems, in some cases, as in the Template Engine, the design was a reaction to the problems and shortcomings encountered in working with other template engines. Most of the time though, the designs have been inspired by a perception of need, and opportunity. Currently, these designs are proprietary; deployed internally and in bespoke solutions, however, consideration continues on ways of making the designs available to third parties, and/or the Open Source community.
