Abstract:
We present a generic, web-based data acquisition system that is based on a domain-independent meta data model and which is able to collect, store and manage data of almost arbitrary structure. Due to the use of abstract meta data models, completely generic applications can be built. The additional level of abstraction guarantees the independence of database structure and source code from the actual domain of application and allows to create software systems that can be customized for a certain application without changing any internals of the system. So, domain experts and researchers are able to create, run, and adapt their own web interface for data acquisition without depending on external IT experts. We demonstrate our approach on a registry for intracranial aneurysms.
