Automated system for registration of results of intellectual activity in a scientific organization

The article addresses the development of the automated system for registration of results of intellectual activity at the Institute of Socio-Economic Development of Territories of Russian Academy of Science. Today, the alternative to this system is a non-automated record of the results of research activity, which is associated with a number of inconveniences, namely: errors in data entry, duplication, complexity of preparation of summary reports, lack of a common database and, as a consequence, difficulties in searching for information. The relevance of the study is conditioned by the necessity to solve a number of applied tasks such as automation of accounting of research activities; creation of a single electronic register of publications; harmonization of procedures for the entry of information and standardization of the data stored; easy and convenient access to stored information through various search queries. The developed system is intended for automation of account of results of scientific-research activity, which involves two main goals: storage of the data and organization of access to it. These tasks should be considered in the context of system users and, more specifically, their needs. At this point of development, the information system automates the work of research associates, library staff, employees that send reports to the Federal Agency of Scientific Organizations, and heads of academic departments. The developed information system is based on the Yii2 framework, designed for building large-scale web applications. The aspects of creation of the systems for registration of intellectual activity described in the article can be implemented in almost any research institute, as well as in many educational institutions of the Russian Federation.
