Design of Asset Supply Chain Management System Based on Internet of Things for Chinese Universities

The existing problems of ASCMS (Asset Supply Chain Management System of Chinese Universities) are analyzed. The feasibility of applying the technologies of IOT (Internet of Things) to ASCMS is discussed. The system target is described. And use case diagrams of administrator, user and supplier are used to system requirement analysis by using UML (Unified Modeling Language). And then the workflow charts of user and administrator are given to interpret the functional procedures. Moreover the state of asset is defined and illustrated by state diagram to describe the state transition of asset in its lifecycle. Finally the system architecture, system workflow and system module are studied. Analysis and study of ASCMS shows that applying the technologies of IOT to asset management system is feasible from both views of management rules and technology.
