Product Design Applications & Collaboration
Peter Olotka. . . talks about our collaborative design process using design databases for Cosmic Encounter®, GoodtoGrow, and WeatherQuest
Bill was (and is) our internal champion and chief architect for using data driven design in our projects. Due to Bill’s efforts and foresight we have a comprehensive data structure for our browser based Flash game Cosmic Encounter® Online.
The entire customer experience, from visiting the website, through joining, login, purchase at PayPal, lobby experience, game selection, game play and player ranking are all integrated. On the design side, all game components are created, categorized and managed in a design database.
Since the game has ever expanding features, which interact in millions of combinations, the design database changes “herding cats” to herding cats that at least pay attention!
He applied the same principles to Good To Grow! and WeatherQuest with the same tenacity and success. In both cases the result was an end product which was extraordinarily variable from the users perspective – while self-contained and easy to run from the client’s perspective.
As the chief beneficiary of using Bill’s custom database systems to cradle and organize our unique designs, I can say that none of them could have been done without these creative and comprehensive approaches.

Information Matters!
Design Applications
We create custom applications to manage product design and product technical resource information – applications which organize and streamline the design process.
Our applications also support using the information created during the product’s design, development, and testing to generate product resource libraries, e.g. XML files which “drive” the product. Using a product design and resource information application as a part of your design process will help simplify and organize the product development cycle and the decision processing information defined for the product.
Our goal is “data-driven” design
- information systems that support the iterative design process by organizing product information and creative design decisions, and making changes and improvements simple
- information systems which maintain product design information throughout the product life cycle
- information systems which generate dynamic information to automate a product’s knowledge about its resources, functionality, timing, and logic
Examples of products designed and developed Using Product Design Applications:
online education applications
online multi-player game site
small dynamic web applications
