Exp-DB: Fast Development of Information Systems for Experiment Tracking

Bioinformatics research groups require information systems keeping track of experiments and their results. However, current solutions are often ad-hoc, difficult to maintain, extend, or use in different context. This paper presents Exp-DB, an infrastructure for the fast development of information systems for experiment tracking. Exp-DB provides a basic, extensible database design, components for accessing the data, and a web-based interface. It allows for fast implementation of an initial system even by non IT-experts which can then be extended step-by-step.
