Compiler

ROV COMPILER is a technology to compile and encrypt models with the highest level of security and protection. With this software, users can assemble their existing Excel models into license-controlled executable EXE files. ROV’s patented methods can be used to encrypt and lock up the intellectual property and mathematical algorithms of the model, and issue hardware-controlled and timed licenses to the purchaser’s own users or customers.

Description

COMPILER is meant to be used to convert Microsoft Excel XP, 2003, and 2007 files to extract an existing model into pure mathematical relationships and code such that the model can be used as usual but the intellectual property of the model is protected. You can now use Excel as a software development tool instead of only a modeling tool. That is, suppose you are an expert in a certain industry such as banking, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, manufacturing, insurance, aeronautics, and so forth, and further suppose that you have developed Excel models and worksheets that are appropriate for use by others in the same field. You can now use ROV Compiler to create executable EXE files from your existing Excel models; lock up the mathematical, business, and computational logic into binary code; and create extremely secure hardware‐locked license protection of your file that can be distributed like a software program. When run, the compiled file will have the exact look and feel of Excel, minus the ability to access critical calculation logic, plus the ability to be secured and licensed like a regular software program. There exists public domain software that will crack Excel passwords quickly and effortlessly, but such software will not work on compiled files. By running the extracted model, several items are accomplished, namely:

  • Use Excel as a programming platform instead of just modeling… you do not need to learn advanced software programming to create your own licensed software!
  • Any existing Excel 2002, 2003, and 2007 files and beyond can be compiled–extracted from Excel XLS or XLSX files and turned into binary mathematical code, creating a self‐executable EXE file that, when run, will open in Excel. The file will function exactly like an Excel file; it will look and feel like Excel but the computations are all embedded in binary format that is encrypted and not accessible to the end user.
  • All of the business intelligence and relationships are maintained but will no longer be visible to the end user, allowing the model creator to safely and securely distribute the model without losing control of any intellectual property or company secrets.
  • The compiled model can be locked using a 2048 bit RSA encryption (more powerful and secure than military-strength protection) and can only be accessible using the correct password and license (using computer hardware locking algorithms).
  • The compiled model cannot be changed by the end user, and this restriction maintains a strict quality control and prevents malicious tampering or accidental breakage of the model (e.g., equations and functions with broken links, wrong functions and calculations, etc.).
  • The compiled file can also be used by third‐party software applications in a Component Based Modeling environment. For instance, the end user might have his or her own software or database with predefined calculations. The compiled file is linked into and is a part of this existing proprietary system and can be called in command console mode. Your own proprietary software system simply obtains the inputs to link into the compiled file and the compiled model will perform the computations and return the required outputs.
