Instruments Warehouse Management System in Power Industry Based on Sensor Networks

Abstract:

By employing sensor technology, control and network communication technology, we develop an intelligent instrument warehouse management system (IWMS) oriented to a typical instrument warehouse in power industry. We develop, test and improve the control hardware module, the instrument status indication module and the related software program. We also make the operational processes, provide a visual and intuitive operator interface, and realize and optimize the functions such as account management, query, breakdown alert and repair report. The implementation in Dongguan Power Supply Bureau reveals that IWMS optimizes the check-in and check-out process for the instruments, shortens the registration time, achieves the goal of automatic statistics, and improves the efficiency for instrument management and the operation productivity.
