The WPI MQP team was invited to Deutsche Bank to participate in the development of OPAL Finance. The project had two areas of focus. One project conducted an industry best practices review of financial metrics, and combined the results of that research with the possible effects of recent regulatory changes affecting the financial industry. This resulted in a set of recommendations for financial metrics for OPAL Finance to improve shareholder value. The other focus of the project was to support the development of a mobile version of OPAL Finance for Apple iPod/iPad, Android and BlackBerry devices. The resulting recommendations gave design guidelines, a comparison of cross-compiling platforms, and a suggested framework for analysis of application candidates for Mobile OPAL.
