August 12, 2015 - The PACTware consortium announces the release of PACTware 5.0 that is based on the FDT2 standard. PACTware 5.0 is open source to the members of the PACTware Consortium. As an FDT2 Frame Application, PACTware enables users to benefit from increased performance and security associated with the technology while maintaining compatibility with previous PACTware projects.
PACTware has also been upgraded by employing .Net as the underlying technology thereby ensuring the investment and maintainability of PACTware 5.0. The .Net technology not only provides greater independence from the hardware platform, it also opens up new opportunities to design a more advanced graphical user interface.
In the future this will, for example, enable intuitive finger operations similar to those used on mobile devices like smartphones and tablets.
