- *Abstract
-
Management of support functions at large research and educational organizations can be a difficult and time-consuming prospect. Moreover, these functions are often unit-specific and require more intensive, customized support. Web-based systems for providing these services promise efficiencies, reductions in paperwork, enhanced user satisfaction, and cost reductions.
To address these needs, researchers at the University of California, Berkeley have developed a faculty, department, or organization-centric suite of applications for the support of faculty, human resources, and administrative functions. The suite can support one or multiple organizations while sharing one server and a local or remote database with customizable page headers and content. The suite is customized for each unit it supports with a simple yet powerful administrative tool. Berkeley's applications suite, One Unit, is written in PHP, uses MySQL, and runs under a Apache 2 web server on a variety of platforms such as Windows, OS X, Solaris, and Linux RedHat.
