ArborWay Labs presents a demonstration of its automatic relational technology or ART Studio


ArborWay Labs will present a live demonstration of its automated
relational technology system called the ART Studio. It is a proof of concept that
generates database applications automatically using context-sensitive interfaces that
guide designers through our step-by-step process. In the first half of our presentation,
we will explain how and why our technology breaks new ground with the RDBMS on the
white board. Next, we will build a small database application from a 5-table database
system that will be posted on our server. The audience will be encouraged to browse
and explore the “100 Best TV Episodes database” on their own personal computing
devices. This part of the demonstration will be limited to smart phones, tablets, and
laptops. Stay tuned for the launch of our smart watch database applications in the
Summer’17.
