  • Adverto Mystery Shopping

    Adverto Mystery Shopping

    In the winter of 2008, I collaborated with my old friend Goran Petrović, to create a website for his company “Adverto Mystery Shopping”.

    We brainstormed the information architecture, and afterward I created a rudimentary CMS to maintain the content.

    As he was using an application for his business that was written using ASP.NET 1.1, it was a requirement for the web site as well. The markup is XHTML compatible as much as ASP.NET 1.1 WebForms allow, styled using CSS, and interaction improved using JavaScript and MooTools.

    You can have a look in more detail at www.adverto-ms.rs.

  • Rimako

    Rimako

    During year 2008, I helped the furniture industry company “Rimako” improve it’s web presence.

    At the start I created the information architecture, and identified key SEO techniques to be applied.

    A lot of work by my and my wife Ana went into the design and page structure and elements.

    Web site and CMS were implemented using the excellent CodeIgniter framework for PHP, with MySQL database as the back end.

    The pages are formatted in XHTML, styled with CSS and enhanced with JavaScript to accommodate older browsers (i.e. IE6).

    Please visit www.rimako.co.rs to have a more detailed look.


  • ISB

    In the summer of 2007 I was working closely with “ISB” to produce this website presenting a portfolio real estates.

    At first I created the information architecture, and suggested the features that would distinguish clients website.

    Database format was imposed by the client’s desktop application, but was a bit augmented with fields needed for web usage.

    Standing out are the features to create a custom list of real estates, as well as detailed search.

    The  web site is available (though a bit redesigned) at www.isbdoo.com.

  • Serbian Archives of Medicine

    Serbian Archives of Medicine

    During 2006 and 2007 I was working on the web publishing platform for “Serbian Archives of Medicine” Journal of the Serbian Medical Society.

    The requirement was to create a system that would accept the submitted articles, routing them through the complex system of administration, reviews, revisions, edits, and so on until they reach the publication.

    On the other hand, there was a need to put the existing printed editions online as well.

    I have presented to the revision board my analysis of the entities and processes, shown some ideas how to handle them in the system, they loved it, and I was hired to do the job.

    After several iterations of architecture revisions, I have designed the database in Access (hosting limitation) which was later migrated to Microsoft SQL Server.

    The web application was implemented in ASP.NET 1.1 WebForms, as it was the platform available for hosting at the time, using C# and NUnit for testing.

    The design was aimed for clean overview and quick loading times, implemented in XHTML (as far as ASP.NET 1.1 WebForms allow), CSS, and enhanced a bit with JavaScript.

    The document management system was a real challenge, since the client had a complex process, but in close cooperation it was implemented successfully.

    The system was later a bit tailored and deployed to [permalink href=”247″]Serbian Dental Journal[/permalink] web site.

    It is now available at the address www.smiledent.rs.
