  • Expert designer system virtual plug-in interface
    Patent number: 6564201
    Abstract: A virtual plug-in interface for an expert designer system for use with one or more database system types is disclosed. The expert designer system includes a core for performing functions. The virtual plug-in interface interacts with the database system such that the expert designer system core functions independently of the database system type. The database system categories with which the virtual plug-in interface operates include a geographic information system (GIS) and a work management system (WMS). The virtual plug-in interface includes a virtual GIS plug-in interface for a GIS and a virtual WMS plug-in interface for a WMS. The virtual GIS plug-in interface interacts with the GIS such that the expert designer system core functions independently of the GIS database system type. The virtual WMS plug-in interface interacts with the WMS such that the expert designer system core functions independently of the WMS database system type.
