It is a newly founded software product company based in UK which focuses on iPhone related development.

Shinetech responsibility

All the software is developed for iPhone user.

• Audio software (1 man-month) based on OpenAL which runs smoothly both on 3G and 3GS.
• User experience improvement of a thermal control system (1 man-month) by bug fixing and performance optimization on software loading time, retrieval time (down to 0.5s from previous 3s when searching through 8000 data items), and widgets loading time.
• Continuous development of health software (6 man-month) which has been delivered 3 versions as the client always changes the requirements.
• ...

How we work

The client is too busy to think deep about the software details and work out development plans, due to the situation, Shinetech team practices a proper collaboration method to occupy less time on the client's side, for example, making plans and delivering workable modules every 3~5 days for the client to check the development quality and progress, advising on the functionality of the software as a common iPhone user, providing options of technical solutions for the client to choose the most suitable one, etc.

Up to now, the cooperation has been 1+ years and runs smoothly.
