You might read about or watch WPF: Monitoring operations at Zürich Airport application on Channel 10. It is realy wonderful demonistration of WPF.

You can read about this case study here.

I was wondering if I could have the code of this application or be able to have it run on my local machine?! And Yes with help of my friends we were able to do that, it was simple.

I would like to share it, but I'm not able to upload it somewhere. The application size is about 5 MB and after zipping it become 1.3 MB.

It contains an exe file which you can decompile it using .Net Reflector. Also the exe file contains a demo data. You can run the application on your local system or review the code!

 

If anyone interested you may contact me.
