Abstract :
To enhance the effectiveness and efficiency in the virtual laboratory management, a VLIMS (virtual laboratory information management system) is needed. A meta-model and architecture for the VLIMS was discussed. The meta-model consisted of 6 basic entities. Using an expanded Web services description and search process, the architecture assembled the experimental workflow management of multi-heterogeneous system and supported data mining process, based on the metadata repository. The schema integration and evolution operation were analyzed, in order to implement schema matching and version management. The financial business example of Web services composition showed the services configuration and metadata function.
