February 23-27, 2004 – STARLIMS at Waters Software Users Symposium, Edinburgh, Scotland

Those who use or are considering the acquisition of a laboratory informatics solution such as Laboratory Information Management Systems will benefit by attending CDS 2004.

An optimal LIMS/CDS interface is one that supports secure bi – directional communication between the two applications and is flexible enough allowing users to decide where to place workflow and calculation actions (LIMS or CDS).  For instance, certain procedures will allow transparent (automatic) signoff on the Millenium/Empower side, while other situations will determine whether the analyst is given an opportunity to review the results on the LIMS side and decide which results set should be designated for further processing.

The STARLIMS solutions demonstrated are based on real world experiences at a leading independent consumer product testing, quality assurance and R&D firm. The STARLIMS workshop will examine the critical role of an evolved CDS/LIMS interface accomplished by the joint effort of Waters® and STARLIMS enabling scientists and technical staff to seamlessly move electronic records between Millennium32 / Empower and STARLIMS. This is a superior enhancement for labs complying with 21 CFR Part 11 requirements encompassing security; data integrity, traceability, and audit trail generation.
