A heritage in solving complex data problems

Several years before XML became a de facto standard, ATS realized the need for a hierarchical, self-describing, data modeling and storage technology. ATS developed the Contiguous Connection Model™ (CCM) technology to facilitate rapid information retrieval, enhance data navigation and visualization, and promote knowledge discovery.  This patented technology (US Patent #’s 5,303,367 and 5,555,409), which was revolutionary for its time, automatically correlates hierarchical data, models it, and stores it in expandable name/value pairs.  CCM goes much further–it creates a complete new hierarchical structure for each and every data point, with the data point as the root. These "inversions" are permanently stored and can be intuitively browsed using our powerful visualization tools.

CCM was the pre-cursor to REGGAE™, a core component of the ATS ID | engine, which powers today’s ID products.
