I need an application that allows users to search for airline tickets across multiple sites and display results in a unified view. It should search and parses the data from each site, removes duplicates, and displays to the user the results.Technical RequirementsThe UI is not important, it will be rewritten. The importance is the backend part which queries the different sites and parses out the data. It should be written in C or C#(speed is very important) and must be a component which can be used in VB.netC#C.net. It should be modular, fast, and extensible. The business logic for adding a new site to search and the parsing for that site should be stored in an .dat or .xml file which can easily be updated without having to install the whole program again.The goal is to use it for a Windows Application, not a web application.When product is final, full code is required. Do not use any open source code or libraries please. Feature RequirementsSearch UIUser must be able to specify Departing Airportdatetime, Arrival Airport, Returning DateTime, number of tickets.Results should display:Airline Namedeparting airportdeparting timearriving airportarrival timenumbers of stopsDuration of flightlowest price found (best deal)Site the lowest deal was found onlink to access the particular deal on the siteList of sites that had the same flight, and their individual prices, links to the flights on each siteUser should be able to sort results on :Price, arrival time, departure time, Airline name, stops, Site name (sorting is optional feature)The application should assist the user with finding the appropriate airport.

Bid Smart - The lowest bidder doesn't always get chosen, far from it. Persuade your buyer why they should pick you - and they will.
Research - If John has paid more than $500 a contract for his last 10 project, why would you think he is interested in your $10 bid? Check up on the buyer, bid what he expects, and deliver quality to match.
Read - Please read the bid request - I cannot emphasise this enough - if you do not read the bid request then you will not be chosen, this is pretty much certain. Mention the bid request specifically in your application, and don't forget to repeat the key deliverables.
Innovate - Suggest features the bidder didn't mention, talk about future extensions to the project, and discuss whether you think his or her approach is a good idea. Show interest, intellect, and willing.
