We architected, fully developed, and successfully deployed two mission-critical software systems for Bruker Technologies, bridging the gap between legacy hardware assets and modern distributed environments. Both systems passed rigorous customer acceptance testing and were delivered as ready-for-production assets.
The challenge was an undocumented, decades-old product designed strictly for a single user terminal via a rigid RS-232C serial interface. Without modifying the internal legacy software, we applied an external architectural layer utilizing self-hosted C# WCF services.
This framework encapsulation completely decoupled the legacy system, transforming a single-user machine into a modern, high-throughput network asset that supports dozens of concurrent clients simultaneously. Alongside this core infrastructure, we developed a near real-time monitoring and control application acting as a WCF client. The resulting hybrid system concurrently drives automated status logging, active monitoring streams, and publish/subscribe alert notifications for external software systems.
We designed and developed a centralized software infrastructure that encapsulates and coordinates large clusters of identical TCP/IP connected hardware devices. By applying strict SOLID principles and robust behavioral Design Patterns, this framework unifies control over the entire device cluster into a single architectural unit. External clients can connect concurrently, issue commands, and dynamically subscribe to real-time, event-driven alert streams emitted by individual devices.
By basing these systems on Volatility-Based Decomposition, we mapped the software architecture directly to Bruker's stable physical domain rather than shifting requirement lists. This guarantees that future features can be deployed in days by modifying orchestration layer workflows without risking structural regressions - ensuring compressed time-to-market and a permanent, dramatic reduction in software maintenance costs.
Afcon
We developed a mission-critical core software service for Afcon's wide-scale control-room SCADA systems, implementing a robust and optimized variation of the classic Publisher/Subscriber pattern for live system data items.
