Tenders Are Invited For Platform Interconnectivity Software Package – Data Platform

Platform Interconnectivity Software Package – Data Platform. The Subject Of The Procurement Is The Development Of A Software Solution (Data Platform) For The Integration And Orchestration Of Ai-Based Models In The Area Of ​​Biotechnological Protein Development As Well As A Microfluidic Device Park For The Experimental Implementation And Characterization Of Corresponding Protein Designs. The Data Platform Serves As A Central Communication And Integration Layer Between Ai Models, Laboratory Automation Systems And Analysis Components. For This Purpose, Data And Control Information Must Be Exchanged And Processed Between Several Technical Interfaces. The Specific Design Of The Interface Formats Is Carried Out In Coordination With The Project Partners Involved, Taking Open And Interoperable Standards Into Account. The Software Solution Must Enable The Secure, Traceable And Long-Term Storage Of The Data Generated During The Experiments. For This Purpose, A Data Management And Storage Architecture Must Be Provided That Supports Structured Storage, Versioning And Access To Experimental Data And Metadata. The Platform Must Be Flexible And Enable Operation In Both Local Computing Environments And Cloud Environments. The Data Used In The Project Is Essentially Generated By A Microfluidic Device Park That Experimentally Implements And Characterizes Protein Designs Generated Using Bioinformatics. The Device Park Is Controlled Via The Existing Control Software Droplet Control Center (Dcc) From Efficient Robotics Gmbh. The Data Platform To Be Developed Must Be Able To Communicate With This Software In Order To Transmit Control Information To The Device Park And To Process Experimentally Generated Data. In Addition, The Data Platform Must Be Model-Agnostic And Enable The Integration Of Various Ai Models To Generate Protein Designs. For This Purpose, A Standardized Communication Mechanism Must Be Provided That Reflects Both Experimental And Bioinformatic Requirements. The Corresponding Interfaces Must Be Specified In Coordination With The Project Partners. The Data Platform Must Enable The Connection Of A Central Database That Supports The Storage, Management And Evaluation Of Data From Multiple Experiments. It Must Be Ensured That Experimental Data, In Particular Sequence And Activity Data Including Associated Metadata, Can Be Stored In A Structured And Consistent Manner. The Platform Must Also Enable The Integration Of External Biotechnological Devices Via Software-Based Adapters. This Particularly Includes Sequencing Platforms As Well As Microbiological And Fermentative Systems. The Integration Takes Place Via Standardized Interfaces To The Dcc Software, Which Enable Control And Data Acquisition Of The Connected Devices. The Interface Architecture Is To Be Developed Together With The Project Partners
