A Dynamic Management Information System Based on ZigBee Technology for Instruments and Equipments of Experimental Centre

Based on ASP.NET 2.0 framework and ZigBee wireless sensor network, a dynamic management information system for instruments and equipments of experimental centre was designed and developed. Electronic labels were equipped to the object instruments and equipments, and the information was obtained by using ZigBee and Ethernet protocol. The platform of dynamic management was constructed through collecting real-time information of the instruments and equipments in a timely manner. At the university level, the system is coordinated with specified framework of instruments and equipments under the management of State-Owned Assets Department to accept the supervision and inspection by higher level departments. At the college level, it is subdivided to instrument and equipment status (e.g., acquisition/scrap, lent out/returned, running state/using rate, etc.) to realize fast and convenient inquiry about their current inventory status, and their utilization efficiency in the experimental centre is increased to serve students and faculties better.
