This project involves the development of plug-ins and add-ons to upgrade an existing scientific software application, called Virtual Column, which is designed for simulation and optimisation in Separation Science. This software application involves data management and representation in multiple dimensions, along with graphical manipulation. Virtual Column was initially developed in our research group and subsequently commercialised by the Dionex Corporation (Sunnyvale, CA, USA).
This project provides you with experience in adding to an already established software package, along with working with a scientific application. In other words you will be driving commercial development of a real software application, including the graphical user interface (GUI), to meet the needs of the users. In addition, undertaking this project will provide you with experience in programming in Visual C++ and/or Java, graphing experience and working with a multi-disciplinary team to achieve a common goal.
The following URL is a link to an Educational and Training version of this software that we use in our undergraduate teaching laboratories: http://www.virtualcolumn.com.
In this project the software will be prepared in Visual C++ or Java. Other software packages, tools and plug-ins required will be supplied by the client.
The client wishes to retain all IP for this project. Students will also be required to sign a confidentiality agreement
