Developing Chemical Information System AN OBJECT-ORIENTED APPROACH USING ENTERPRISE JAVA

For a long time, chemical information systems have been considered special and have been dominated by a few vendor proprietary solutions. The costs for development and support of these systems are extremely high. I strongly believe that era is over. More and more cheminformatics software vendors provide open APIs for their proprietary implementations or develop their software using open technologies altogether, which offers tremendous opportunity for organizations to acquire or develop their cheminformatics solutions at a much reduced cost and with increased productivity. There is no need to rely on a single vendor to provide end-to-end solutions. This book shows how to apply the software industry’s best practices, principles, and patterns while effectively integrating vendor tools to solve chemical informatics problems. Chemical information systems are complex. This book does not cover every aspect of them. However, it uses a chemical registration system as an example of how to use an object-oriented approach to develop systems in the cheminformatics domain.

This book assumes the reader has basic knowledge of object-oriented analysis, design and programming, UML, Java, and concepts of chemical registration and searching.
