Home !
Overview of All Applications !


Smart Flow is the ISS internally-used workflow and document management system. It is aimed to the managers who need their daily work neatly organized, and the information easily available. The application organizes everyday work and documents into categories, work processes and tasks, which include all related data, documents, contacts, and notes.

The scanned documents, the references to paper documents and the links to files and Internet pages are treated as all other documents. Smart Flow provides automatic filling-in of frequently used electronic documents, by using document templates and separating the data from the documents.

The frequently used work processes could be easily separated as workflow templates. Smart Flow includes a shared scheduler for appointments, available to all users of the same server. Version 1.9.2 fixed and improved is the integration between Smart Flow and Open Office 3, added a screen for displaying the newly created documents, added a screen for displaying the urgent work processes and tasks, and improved is the work of the internal document-tracking system.

Overview of All Applications !

yEd Graph Editor

yEd is a very powerful graph editor that can be used to quickly and effectively generate drawings and to apply automatic layouts to a range of different diagrams and networks.

yEd is available as a free download with unrestricted functionality!

yEd makes full use of the yFiles library. This is a Java class library enabling the viewing, editing, optimizing, drawing, and animating of a wide range of diagrams, networks, and other graph-like structures.

yEd has been built using 100% lightweight Swing components. This allows it to run on any platform where a suitable Runtime Environment is available.

yEd can be used to automatically lay out complex graph structures. Several highly sophisticated layout algorithms have been implemented and shipped with yEd. They can be used either to automatically arrange the items or to support the user when undertaking a manual layout.

• Interactive Hierarchical Layout enables you to interactively layout hierarchical or pseudo-hierarchical scenarios.
• Hierarchical Layout allows you to perfectly visualize hierarchical or pseudo-hierarchical scenarios.
• Orthogonal Layout will produce clear representations of complex networks.
• UML-style Orthogonal Layout offers special support for arranging UML class diagrams, for example.
• Organic Layout and Smart Organic Layout will produce clear representations of complex diagrams like ER diagrams, UML diagrams, and many more.
  The layout can be restricted so that it fits into a given area (e.g., a rectangle, circle, or ellipse) or a specified aspect ratio. Enhanced support for nested graphs.
• Organic Edge Router will organically re-route edges in existing drawings.
• Orthogonal Edge Router will orthogonally re-route edges in existing drawings.
• Circular Layout can perfectly portray interconnected ring and star topologies.
  Nodes can be arranged on the entire disk now. Support for nested graphs.
• Tree Layout can be used to clearly visualize tree-like structures in many different ways.
  Tree layout can consider node and edge labels for layout calculation and provides additional alignment options.

yEd enables users to create groups of nodes, which can be visualized and nested to virtually any degree. Furthermore, the new layout algorithms fully support this type of visualization. Using this unique feature, complex structures can be visualized and laid out even more clearly than before.

Another of yEd's excellent features is its ability to automatically assign label positions. This will enable the user to easily build improved diagrams, with each label clearly readable.

Further, yEd has an intuitive user interface that complies with modern design guidelines for applications. Among its features are:

• a customizable workplace that lets you arrange your tool windows to meet your precise needs
• tabular property editors that enable you to easily configure the graphical properties
• internationalization: yEd has been localized in English and German
• a sophisticated print preview that enables you to preview the printing results (this is especially practical for poster-printing)
• session management: yEd remembers and manages your settings
• undo functionality
• clipboard facility
• keyboard shortcuts for most of the functions
• integrated help system

yEd can be used to build, modify, and visualize graph structures in an effective and efficient manner. They can be loaded and saved using a variety of different file formats including:

• XML-based GraphML file format; the default file format
• YGF file format; a binary file format
• GML graph file format; a popular text-based graph file format
• XML-based GML graph file format; a variant of the GML language that uses XML syntax
• Import of arbitrary XML files. An XSLT stylesheet must be given that transforms the XML input into a valid GraphML. Predefined stylesheets for Ant build scripts, the OWL Web Ontology Language, and others are included.

For exporting graph structures, yEd offers file formats for image and vector graphics export including:

• PDF (Portable Document Format) by Adobe
• Macromedia Flash file format SWF
• SVG vector graphics file format. This file format supports embedding URLs and descriptive tooltips for both nodes and edges.
• Enhanced Windows Meta File (EMF) file format, a vector graphics format that can be used in almost any Windows application.
• JPG and GIF file formats. Export large images as multiple images and HTML tables also supported.
• HTML image maps with support for embedding URLs and descriptive tooltips for both nodes and edges (see a sample)
• BMP (on Windows machines) and PNG file formats
• EPS (Encapsulated PostScript)

All of the image export formats can be fully customized to meet your unique needs.

The editor supports the complete set of graphical attributes necessary for effective graph visualization. The built-in support includes:

• pre-configured node types for UML object diagrams and class diagrams
• multiple labels for nodes and edges
• multi-line and icon labels
• powerful searching and selection utilities
• zooming (resembling a magnifying glass, for example) and overview (zooming can be controlled using the mouse-wheel)
• a set of beautiful icons to get you started with your first diagrams
• further non-graphical properties for nodes and edges: descriptive tooltips and URLs which can be used to open files from within yEd

Adonis: A Business Process Modelling Freeware for Human Resources

Home !
Overview of All Applications !

BOC is giving you free access to the ADONIS:Community Edition (ADONIS:CE) package here. ADONIS:CE is your free, easy to use and functionality enhanced access to professional Business Process Management.


ADONIS includes a suitable model type to depict organisation charts and to document organisational units, actors, and roles. Further documentation attributes include things such as skills, presence, and availability for example. All these elements can then be referenced from the process model and linked to swimlanes, processes, activities, or any potential object. These links are very important for reporting issues based on cross-references (role-activity matrices, organisational unit-process matrices etc.).

Resource planning is often an iterative and ongoing process. With ADONIS you are able to make dynamic resource plan updates and explore different planning aspects.

Capacity analysis estimates the resources needed for a specific process or a group of processes assigned to a working environment model. The workload analysis, in contrast to the path analysis and capacity analysis algorithms, takes the given resources and shows waiting time and durations. You can choose two different workload analysis approaches. On one hand you could use steady-state, which simulates workload with a given quantity of a process occurrence. On the other hand you could apply workload analysis with a timetable constraint.
