trip price. Trip packages will reflect individual traveler preferences, and can
be optimized based on traveler needs. From a Sabre access middleware perspective,
Databahn is a tool which is key to the success Trip shopping is delivered as a
web service using XML as the primary interface. The major components of the trip
shopping service are Core Trip Shopping Application server that serves as the
platform to integrate all other components that make up the Trip Shopping
service, Optimization Engine (also referred to as Dynamic Packaging algorithm)
that engine will use the input choices for air, car and hotel and compute the
most optimal package for the user based on user preference and Databahn which is
a piece of middleware that provides connectivity to Sabre and abstracts most
calls to Sabre via an XML interface.

INet Virtual Machine
The project is to develop an interpreter for a set of instructions, which can be
used to execute a Program developed with this set of instructions on any of the
existing platform. This project is to give an Idea of how exactly a Java Program
Executes. All the machines (CPU’s) come with a set of instructions and different
CPU’s will have different Architecture. This IVM which is a Virtual machine also
has its own set of instruction (To simplify the design this machine will support
only 7 - 10 instructions now) and its own architecture.
