Researches & Designs On Collegial Laboratory Management System

This paper studied the development and trend of collegial Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS), consulted those experiences, which concluded from the development of this kind of system. Paper also summarized the characteristics and problems of the electric & electronic central laboratory of a college, mainly be used to complete the experiments about electrics and electronics. Based on detailed analysis of requirement in function and capability, this paper designed a new col legial LIMS, which integrate many advanced techniques of computer and network. Evaluated without reference to function or integrated framework and based on the ideology of Overall Lifecycle Management with adopting many advanced techniques of network, database and middleware etc., this LIMS is superior to those systems being used today.Compared with other collegial LIMS, the LIMS proposed within this paper paid much more attention to the idea of operation overall lifecycle management (OLM) and incarnated that idea. This LIMS contained almost all of the management job of laboratory, integrated the information and procedures of collegial laboratorial equipment, persons, task managing and programming, whose integrated performance represented better than those pristine collegial LIMS.According to the requirement of function and performance, this paper selected an appropriate DBMS and designed the structure of laboratorial LAN, this paper also designed the functional model and informational model. With implemented the regulations of software engineering rigorously, a collegial LIMS has been developed, which adopted many advanced techniques of network, database and middleware etc.Since it ' s test running, this LIMS has brought many economic andsocial benefit, solved a series of problems, which had confused laboratorial managers for a long period. This collegial LIMS not only accelerated laboratorial management work to zero paper, also provided computer aided intelligent curriculum arrangement and data analysis function, that improved the efficiency and quality of management. This LIMS converted traditional close management pattern to opening pattern, through the collegial LAN and database system, enabled managers for laboratory to be related to other teachers and students. This LIMS has proved its effect in improving the laboratorial capability that serve for scholastic teaching demands.
