use cases

QoS Labs has dedicated a vast amount of its resources to R&D at its lab in Florida, especially focusing on service- and knowledge-oriented technologies applied to complex problems that are common to find in the market.

All SaaS solutions developed by QoS Labs in the past were intended to support critical service functionalities by developing proprietary technology and reusing enabling components tested at its lab sometimes in conjunction with technology partners.  As the lab advanced in the use of knowledge representation technologies, use cases aimed at expediting integration by enabling the knowledge domain expert to model app functionalities via QoS Labs’ proprietary tools.

A few representative use cases packaged as turnkey SaaS bundled solutions that reflect the evolution of the QoS Labs’ technology are:

• ASP platform (Application Service Provider)
• Intranet/Extranet Portal
• Semantic Web Page
• ELCM (Employee Life Cycle Management)
• SarbOx Accelerator
• SLCM (SaaS Service Life Cycle Management)
• Social networking platform  
• State 2.0

Use cases have provided the company with valuable experiences applied to commercial implementations and the development of its semantic technology. All use cases developed in the last six years have used knowledge representation technologies and encouraged further development of the SaaS framework that started with the original ASP project back in 1999. QoS Labs’ use cases expose critical functionalities to the Web as services and populates instances of the model with actual structured and unstructured information sources.
