Closed Paid on delivery

We need a brilliant developer(s) for a complex ActionScript/Flex concept-mapping tool. The data for the maps would be synced with a server application which we've already developed. The Flex app should fetch data from the server, render it in an automatic layout, and allow editing of the nodes and edge (while syncing with the server). The detailed (confidential) specifications we will send to serious bidders only after an initial discussion. Nevertheless, to get a rough sense of the outputs we will require, take a look at the Strategy and Tactics Tree at: [url removed, login to view] and at this video for the editing and animation effects: [url removed, login to view] The project will divided into two major phases - the first with the most basic functionality should be delivered within about 35 days, and the second within 70. All of the back-end work will be taken care of by us, according to the client-server protocols that you define. To the chosen coder we will offer to extensive followup work, both challenging and rewarding. We are looking for a person (or team) with very strong: • skills in designing a wise, scalable architecture • research abilities and analytical skills for developing the layout algorithms • habits of writing highly commented and reusable code • interpersonal communication skills Please make sure to answer the following in your bid comment: • Which specific layout algorithm(s) do you expect to implement? • How will you minimize edge crossing? • How do you, in general, intend to deal with scalability issues with graphs of 1000+ nodes? • What would be the pros and cons of using XMLSocket vs. HTTP requests? • A relayout of the entire graph after every edit operation causes abrupt/disorienting changes to the user. How will you counteract this problem? The more intelligent, insightful, and "to the point" your answers are, the more we would like to take you for the job. Thanks!
