Engineering Calculator VOLTA-12

Introduction

Engineering Calculator VOLTA-2012 is implemented as HTML 5 web application project that adheres to software paradigm of separation of programming concerns, namely:

• Content: HTML5
• Presentation: CSS3
• Functionality: Javascript/jQuery

Entire project is encapsulated in a single text file with extremely small digital footprint (less than 10kB). It does not require any graphic files, like .jpg or .png, etc. All aesthetic enhancements, like: rounded corners, color gradients, borders and shadows are achieved exclusively via CSS3 styling, thus resulting in small application footprint and very fast web page load.

Note: this project is submitted to The Windows 8* & Ultrabook™ App Innovation Contest.

Category: Productivity 

Ultrabook-specific features 

• Tilt Sensor to switch between portrait/landscape screen layout (TBD) 
• Touch screen operations
• GPS sensor data to query Power Mains database (TBD)
• GPS sensor to use in data-mining of local Job Market  (TBD)
• GPS sensor data to run local-specific ad services (TBD)

Proposed solution should be able to run in Desktop/Metro modes .

Background  

Engineering Calculator VOLTA-2012 extends the capability and application scope of its predecessor, previously published online [1,2] and partially described on Codeproject (see the link: Engineering Calculator VOLTA-2012)

Demo

Using the code

The code base of existing Calculator VOLTA-2011 has been well documented, commented and discussed online [2]. User Manual is also available online at:[1]

The next version of Calculator VOLTA-2012 (currently under development) will extend the application package and add the capability of running in standalone mode on any Windows-equipped computer, in particular, Ultrabooks.
