Abstract

A suite of software applications was developed in order to provide functionality to monitor and record environmental and experimental data and the associated metadata. A piece of software developed by IBM [1] called the Microbroker was used as middleware to handle the flow of messages containing the monitored data using the MQ telemetry transport [2] (MQTT) format. Methods to send control commands were also employed where allowed by the experimental set up. The software was used to monitor a range of laboratories within the School of Chemistry at the University of Southampton. A number of repository solutions were implemented to build an understanding of what is required for a scalable and interoperable system.
