Xilotec, aplicativo de administração das xilotecas da Universidade Federal de Uberlândia e da Universidade Federal Rural do Rio de Janeiro

Abstract

To make the xilotheques of the Federal University of Uberlândia and the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro data more accessible, it was deemed necessary to automate it, improving the quality of their service and making it's administrators jobs easier. Beyond said automation, the digitalization of its sample collection was planned aiming its preservation for future studies, even if the physical items are destroyed by time degradation. It was suggested to automate the xilotheques by developing a new software due to the lack of existing available software for its needs. The proposal also aimed at using free software so the clients would have no expenses with licensing. This thesis presents the development of the system used to automate xilotheques.
