Architect™BOULDER, Colorado, 19 June, 2002 — Aonix, a
member of the Gores Technology Group and a leading provider of systems
design solutions, today announced the availability of their new product
Select Component Architect.
Select Component Architect is the first technology that combines the
capability of existing design solutions (such as UML) with the powerful
capabilities of a Component-Based Development (CBD) approach.
Today, developers using Select Component Architect will be able to
architect, design and develop component-based applications in an
environment that endorses the seamless reuse and assembly of components.
Select Component Architect is ideally suited to organizations that are
developing Web Services and Web-Based Applications (in environments such
as IBM WebSphere or Microsoft.NET) as it encourages the “Plug and Play” of
developed components within the application reducing development
timescales and increasing effectiveness.

groundbreaking new product release for Aonix and offers the most
significant addition to the Select Component Factory suite for some 2
years. We are confident our customers will be excited by the new and
extended functionality with the product”.
