C Tech’s Network Paradigm:
Graphical Object Oriented Programming
• Libraries with over 200 modules.
• Each module performs data analysis or
visualization functions.
• Applications are collections of modules
interconnected to form networks
• Users can build their own networks, use
or enhance EVS supplied applications
