Create and distribute Mathcad Enterprise worksheets via the Web

Mathsoft wants organisations' engineers to view and to interact with critical calculations collected in Mathcad Enterprise “any time, any where,” allowing companies to become more efficient, improve productivity and reduce time-to-market cycles. The solution is Mathcad Application Server™ — Web-based server software that creates and distributes Mathcad Enterprise worksheets in HTML, allowing engineers to capture, apply and share calculations on the Internet, intranet or extranet via a standard Web browser.

With Mathcad Application Server, remote engineers can interact with documents through simple HTML form fields. They do not need to know HTML, ASP or any other Web-based languages in order to create effective worksheets. Conversion is a “back-end process,” meaning Mathcad Application Server software runs on a Web server, which automatically converts all Mathcad Enterprise worksheets into HTML. The only knowledge required of them is a basic understanding of how to use an Internet Web browser and elements such as text boxes and drop down menus. Engineers use only simple and intuitive dialogue boxes of the Mathcad Application Server to generate and deploy the complex Web-based math calculations.

Mathcad Application Server supports all built-in math functionality, including graphical output of results, for the creation of Mathcad Enterprise Web pages — which can be saved and reused in multiple engineering projects. Users are free to recalculate the documents an unlimited number of times in a single browser session. Even if a decision maker at the enterprise — or at a customer's or partner's site — does not have Mathcad Enterprise installed, the individual can still interact with the results via any Web browser, speeding up the time-sensitive input process.

The server software is easily installed on Microsoft's Windows 2000 and Microsoft Advanced Windows 2000 servers. Mathcad Application Server takes advantage of all the security features found in Microsoft's Internet Information Services (IIS).

If your enterprise needs a standard and secure method to have engineers interact with your organization's complex calculations from different locations, then download the PDF of the Mathcad Application Server for more information.
