Josas is a Java SE 6 developed application, allowing thus to execute it on any platform. It is developed and tested on Linux and Windows Vista.

Josas is designed according to the MVC pattern :

• The persistence layer is implemented on top of the Java Persistence API . Up to now, the toplink.essential reference implementation is used as this implementation is convenient for development. This may evolve to use openJPA in the future.
• In order to ensure a clear separation between the business model and the human interface layers, development of the human interface layer is postponed while the business model layer is not considered matured enough. Such a design decision should benefit when the application will evolve toward a web application.

Although not yet fully implemented, the Java Application Framework will be used as a foundation for the human interface layer development.
