Aurora Technologies along with IBM Israel
and Comtec company (Israel), developed a
dining card for the use of the employees
at the Israeli Airport Authority (IAA).
The Dining Card replaced the paper
coupons used by IAA employees for eating
at the numerous restaurants, diners and
cafeterias under contract with the IAA.
Each
employee in the Airport Authority is
issued a personal dining card for monthly
use. Dining cards are also issued to
external personnel and contractors.
Once issued, the cards are recharged each
month with the dining priveleges of the
employee.
.
Aurora
defined the card structure and its
security. We also wrote the software for
the POS terminal. The terminal type that
was used was the Financer manufactured by
Thyron, UK. Aurora was also
responsible for the communication program
(under Windows NT).
The dining
card system reduced to zero one of the
common problems that was prevalent in the
IAA: fraud and counterfeiting of paper
dining coupons.
