			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ad Server Beans are a number of free open source and proprietary software components designed to build a full-fledged enterprise ad server.</p>
<p>We have created a few demo products based on these components.</p>
<p>Our proprietary components are not required to run these products or to build your own ad server. We offer them as a replacement of our open source offer with guaranteed performance and as an enhancement of their functionality.<br />
Features</p>
<p>For the list of features specific to each product see our products section. These are the features that are available in each product:</p>
<p>    * user, inventory and campaign management through web interface;<br />
    * internationalization and theme support;<br />
    * reporting by time and domain entity (such as user, campaign, site, banner, adplace);<br />
    * click-through and conversion tracking;<br />
    * virtual installations support (one web application works with multiple databases).</p>
<p>Are Ad Server Beans Right For Me?</p>
<p>You should consider using Ad Server Beans if you belong to one of the following groups:</p>
<p>    * developers who are looking for an open source ad server implementation;<br />
    * big publishers who need their own ad serving solution;<br />
    * ad networks eg. a travel ad network or wireless network that consider replacing their current advertising management software;<br />
    * online advertising agencies that would like to use their own ad agency software to ad serve ads;<br />
    * entrepreneurs, startups that are looking for a way to kick-start their business;<br />
    * small publishers can use our hosted service.</p>
<p>Note: we do not run our own ad network, so you will not find advertisers or publishers here, just the software and services to do that. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[TomatoCart is an innovative open source shopping cart.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>TomatoCart is an innovative open source shopping cart solution. It is forked from osCommerce 3 as a separate project and equipped with the web2.0 technology Ajax and Rich Internet applications (RIAs).<br />
The most brilliant feature of TomatoCart is that it takes the lead to use web desktop application with ExtJS technology on the back end of a shopping cart solution. The web desktop application mimics the user experience of desktop Operating System, offering features and applications similar to a PC environment. In such a case, it is fairly easy for both beginners and professionals to use and master. In addition, it supports multi-window operation which enables users to work with several modules simultaneously. Applying to the web desktop application, users can improve efficiency of setting up stores, especially new stores, significantly.<br />
On the front end TomatoCart provides users an easy way to customize their shops. It contains all common features that osCommerce 3 provides, and it also has several significant enhancements based on osCommerce 3:<br />
- Rich Internet applications based administration panel<br />
- Stock and price mgt. for product attributes<br />
- Products quantity discount<br />
- Content Management System<br />
- Search Engine Optimization(SEO)<br />
- Web analytics (Piwik)<br />
And more features will come soon.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>GNU Octave is a high-level language, primarily intended for numerical computations. It provides a convenient command line interface for solving linear and nonlinear problems numerically, and for performing other numerical experiments using a language that is mostly compatible with Matlab. It may also be used as a batch-oriented language.</p>
<p>Octave has extensive tools for solving common numerical linear algebra problems, finding the roots of nonlinear equations, integrating ordinary functions, manipulating polynomials, and integrating ordinary differential and differential-algebraic equations. It is easily extensible and customizable via user-defined functions written in Octave&#8217;s own language, or using dynamically loaded modules written in C++, C, Fortran, or other languages.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>db4o (database for objects) is a high-performance, embeddable open source object database for Java and .NET developers. Get a head start for your products by leveraging db4o&#8217;s cutting edge technology to achieve unprecedented levels of performance and flexibility. </p>
<p>Simply embed db4o&#8217;s open source object database engine into your application and store and retrieve even the most complex object structures with only one line of code.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s main features include the following:</p>
<p>- One-Line-of-Code Database: Store any object with just one line of code</p>
<p>- Embeddable: db4o is designed to be embedded in clients or other software components completely invisible to the end user. Thus, db4o needs no separate installation mechanism, but comes as just one easily deployable library with a very low footprint of some 400KB</p>
<p>- Portability and Cross-Platform Deployment: db4o supports Java&#8217;s JDK 1.1.x through 5.0 and runs on J2EE and J2SE. db4o also runs with J2ME dialects that support reflection, such as CDC, PersonalProfile, Symbian, Savaje and Zaurus.</p>
<p>- Native Queries: Rather than using string-based APIs (such as SQL, OQL, JDOQL, EJBQL, and SODA), NQs allow developers to simply use the programming language itself (e.g., Java, C#, or VB.NET) to access the database and thus avoid a constant, productivity-reducing context switch between programming language and data access API.</p>
