Techno Mastery in Collaborative Qualitative and Mixed Methods Research

Here at SCRC we pride ourselves on being up-to-date on the newest technology in both the qualitative research / mixed methods research world and the programming world. The technology used to create Dedoose is at the cutting-edge of the Information Technologies universe.

SubSonic

SubSonic is A Super High-fidelity Batman Utility Belt that works up your Data Access (using Linq in 3.0), throws in some much-needed utility functions, and generally speeds along your dev cycle. SubSonic acts as the Database Access Layer and is responsible for delivering and securing the Database, eliminating SQL injection attacks among many of it's other protection mechanisms.

WebORB.Net

WebORB for .NET is a high performing, multi-functional development and runtime environment that is designed to effortlessly connect Flex, Flash, AJAX and Silverlight clients with .NET objects, XML Web Services, native operating system resources and rich media streams (audio and video). Some of the key benefits of using WebORB include ease of development, improved development workflow, reduced code base to write and manage, reduced development cost and faster time to market.

Adobe Flex Framework 4

Flex is a highly productive, free, open source framework for building expressive web applications that deploy consistently on all major browsers, desktops, and operating systems by leveraging the Adobe® Flash® Player and Adobe AIR® runtimes. While Flex applications can be built using only the free Flex SDK, Adobe Flash Builder™ (formerly Adobe Flex® Builder™) software can accelerate development through features like intelligent coding, interactive step-through debugging, and visual design of the user interface layout.

Robot Legs

Robotlegs is a pure AS3 micro-architecture (framework) with a light footprint and limited scope. Simply put, Robotlegs is there to help you wire your objects together. It provides the glue that your application needs to easily function in a decoupled way. Through the use of automated metadata based dependency injection Robotlegs removes boilerplate code in an application. By promoting loose coupling and avoiding the use of Singletons and statics in the framework Robotlegs can help you write code that is highly testable.

Axiis Visualization Framework

Axiis is an open source data visualization framework designed for beginner and expert developers alike. Whether you are building elegant charts for executive briefings or exploring the boundaries of advanced data visualization research, Axiis has something for you. Axiis provides both pre-built visualization components as well as abstract layout patterns and rendering classes that allow you to create your own unique visualizations.

Secure Sockets Layer Extended Validation (SSL EV) Encryption

SSL EV is the highest tier of encryption and validation offered on the internet. This protects your data while travelling over the internet so that only you and Dedoose have access to your precious data.

JungleDisk

Dedoose uses JungleDisk as it's cloud based file storage system. Powered by Amazon and Rackspace, this system is responsible for keeping backup's of all of Dedooses data and is an encrypted, distributed filesystem with incredible speed and redundancy. The ensures that even in a worst case catastrophic failure, your data is still safe and secure. No matter if your computer crashes or gets a virus, Dedoose will still be here with all your data ready to assist you.
