Aware™ Technology Patent & Consulting
for Permutation Based - Polymorphic Modeling

AWARE TECHNOLOGY'S
patented What-if Modeling enhances modeling operations through permutations. A single user defined model automatically changes into any one of many different forms to answer many more analytical questions.  Excel cannot do this. It allows you to enter values into dependent formula cells, automatically permutes your model to a valid alternate form and calculates a result.
Features single, interactive, multiple and user defined permutation behaviors to provide write once, use many models... a true productivity gain.

Aware™ Technology Patent

For Permutation Based - Polymorphic Modeling

Aware™ Technology was founded to bring to market a valuable new paradigm for spreadsheet, financial and mathematical modeling. This new, "write once, use many models," paradigm, can take a single user defined model and automatically transform it into multiple models to leverage your work and increase your productivity. [View the Patent]

Specifically, a "permutation based " model has built in intelligence that allows the model to automatically "permute" or change from one original form into another one of many alternate forms. Users trigger this permutation process by context-sensitive events, such as when you enter a value into a formula cell or when you click on a toolbar speedbutton or menu command. 

Thus, a "polymorphic model" is one that can take on many different forms, i.e., poly means "many" and morphic means "form." Simply put, we have invented a way to take one model and turn it into many alternate forms for you to use, i.e., "polymorphic modeling."  That is why we say, "our models know how to change." The Patented Aware technology provides a wide range of controls and behaviors for model permutation, such as, single, interactive, multiple and user defined permutation controls. These controls and behaviors provide an almost limitless range of model permutations to leverage a single user defined model into many alternate forms in order to answer many more analytical questions.

The bottom line is to provide a productivity increase for both developers and users. Developers and users can build a single model and get back multiple models to leverage their work and optimize both development speed and size, and analytical productivity. We call this analytical approach "What-if Modeling" because it answers the question, "what happens if my model changes before it performs my what-if analysis?" Whereas what-if analysis changes inputs to calculate results, what-if modeling changes the model first, and then performs the what-if analysis. Thus, what-if modeling can answer many more analytical questions for greater insight and productivity.

This new paradigm originates with the Patent for "Polymorphic Enhanced Modeling," 6,292,810. Aware™ Technology is both a developer using the patent to develop products and the licensing agent for the patent. Our goals are 1) to license the Patent to developers for use in their own development efforts, 2) to demonstrate the viability and value of the technology through product development of showcase products which utilize the Patented technology, and 3) to license these showcase products directly to end users who will realize tremendous productivity gains when they use these products.

Review Our Product Prototypes

Our two showcase product prototypes are 1st Financials and the Aware Spreadsheet. These products illustrate to developers the use of the Aware™ technology Patent.. They represent valuable and useful potential software products for end users, i.e. investors, financial analysts, business owners, spreadsheet users and the like. 

Developers will realize value-added productivity gains when they license the Aware™ technology and integrate it into their modeling applications ranging from spreadsheets to Internet based applications.

End-users will derive value-added productivity gains when using products that use the Aware™ technology to deliver "permutation based and polymorphic" applications. (Aware Products)
