Meter Data Management System™
|
Celeritas' Meter Data Management System™ (MDMS) is a part of the
WattageWorks™ suite of products. MDMS was developed out of the need of
utility clients to manage energy transmission data required by regional transmission organizations (RTOs).
The application was constructed using Java and the Struts framework and runs against an Oracle database.
MDMS provides utility companies the ability to capture and store meter data from their SCADA and MV-90 systems
as well as other external meter data sources; to review, edit, and submit meter data to their respective RTO;
and to transmit meter data outside of their organization to counter-parties and/or energy accounting applications.
It also provides settlement statements auditing information.

Electric Utilities - Energy Resource & Capacity Planning Software Development
|
A major electric utility needed Java software assistance implementing its strategy for bidding energy
into their power markets. Celeritas developed
Java BeanShell scripts for their industry applications, including
PCI GenTrader®, PCI GenPortal®,
and PCI GenManager® to customize the hourly and 7-day resource plan
and capacity plan values submitted to the market.
The scripts modified energy ramp up regulation and ramp down regulation and GenTrader input and output values to
take into account
wind farm wind forecasts, as well as coal power plant operating bands associated with coal mills being in or
out of service. |
| Celeritas developed Dashboard user interfaces and script libraries to support the review and
manipulation of application data (stored in an Oracle database), as well as to support
monitoring and logging of events in the system (a Java EE EJB application running in a
BEA WebLogic container). Scripts were written to create templates that performed calculations
supporting the electric utility's market offer strategy. |
AMPS™ (Automated Monitoring & Provisioning System)
A Midwest-based telecommunications/broadband provider requested enhancements to improve their
business processes and efficiencies for an existing AMPS™ implementation. Enhancements
included adding multiple authentication accounts per device, averting autonomous alarm messages, and unassigning voice ports
under certain conditions.

of AMPS™
Tools employed included Java and Linux.
Publishing e-Commerce
A Kansas City based client needed assistance with a website developed by a third party. The website
contained published material available through paid subscription. The client had no
expertise in Java technologies, and brought Celeritas in to add new functionality to their
customer relationship and customer-facing websites.
With little design, database or object documentation available, Celeritas nevertheless developed a
thorough understanding of the system through source code inspection of over 90,000 lines of code.
Celeritas completed the development, testing and tuning of the system and websites utilizing
Java technologies on an Orion application server.
Celeritas' role evolved to one of full support for the websites, including maintenance, testing and deployment.
Celeritas also developed subscription management/enforcement functionality for the site, which is used to
allow only a licensed number of concurrent users per subscription.
Tools employed in this project included Java, Enterprise Java Beans, Java Server Pages, Oracle Database,
Solaris, and JDBC. WinCVS was used for the management of source code. |
Interchange Transaction Scheduling System
A client required the creation of an Interchange Transaction Scheduling system in order to meet
FERC regulations, to increase extensibility of the system, and to improve system performance in order to
process transactions during peak periods. Celeritas provided project management,
object-oriented analysis and design, architecture, logical and physical database modeling,
user interface prototyping, construction, testing and implementation. The system provides an
automated interface with the Southwest Power Pool.
Rational Rose was used for developing use cases, class diagrams, sequence diagrams, and deployment diagrams.
Java/J2EE was developed using the WebLogic Application Server on NT. The database server was Compaq Tru64 UNIX,
with Oracle as the database engine. |
|
| Tools employed included Oracle Database, NT, Tru64, Java Server Pages, Oracle Designer, UML, WebLogic,
Rational Requisite Pro, Java, Rational Rose and JBuilder. |
Test Equipment Data/Failure Analysis System
A DOE defense contractor desired migration of a critical engineering test/QA system
from an Ingres/VAX client-server environment to a web-based Oracle/Sun environment. Celeritas performed
requirements gathering, design, testing and implementation services to allow classified and unclassified data
to be created and shared by internal and external users in a secure environment.
The legacy systems were based on IBM mainframes, DEC VAX, PDPs and PCs. The newly designed system replaced
much of the legacy systems, where applicable, with a Sun server running UNIX. The application is web-based for
both internal and external access, utilizing various Java technologies, including Java Server Pages, Java,
Java Beans and Oracle Application Server.
Tools employed included Oracle Database, NT, Solaris, VMS, Windows, Java Script, Java Server Pages, Oracle Application
Server, Oracle Designer, Oracle Pro C, Oracle Procedure Builder, Testing Methodology, UML, DHTML, Java, UNIX scripting.
Energy Trading System
| A Java based client wanted an Energy Trading System that would allow posting bids and offers on
commodities to the market and then consummates the buy/sell of those commodities.
Their current system was
designed to allow trading gas and energy based on one bid or offer at a time, which was not sufficient for the
traders.
The goal was to redesign the system to allow real-time transaction processing for the traders, enabling
a trader to create a trading strategy made up of multiple bids and offers, batch post all bids or offers into
the market, and perform bumps on the quantity and price of items. |
An additional enhancement was to allow for the system to work with all commodities, rather than just gas
and energy. The system has a multi-threaded component that connects into the Exchange and "listens" for
commodity trades. It then records all trades where the company is a buyer or a seller and records this
information for later analysis, including risk management.
Tools employed included Oracle Database, NT, Solaris, Windows, Sun JDBC, Netscape Application Server, Sun Solaris, Oracle,
DHTML, Java, JBuilder
Lockbox Disbursements Viewer/CD
A large banking institution with headquarters in Kansas City wanted to re-design their image
management system for their Lockbox and Disbursement customers. The Celeritas team of consultants designed a new system
that offered a more intuitive user interface, more robust searching capabilities and enhanced imaging. Images of checks and
other documents are distributed via a CD along with a JAVA Swing application.
The application includes a master index that
allows for searching of current as well as previous CDs, image retrieval and a viewer component. Backward compatibility to
the legacy image system was accomplished with XML integration and on-the-fly conversion of old images.
Tools employed included Java Swing and XML.
