  • 29020 Teaching Management System  

    The teaching management system (TMS) provides a means to represent and manipulate the entire teaching commitment of a department.  It allows the central management of workload across staff and is tailored to the commitments of individual members of staff, while also permitting staff to check their individual teaching workloads.

    Our web server TMS software has been supporting 200 users for the last 2 years and is estimated to have saved the administration department £20k per year in reduced back office staffing.

     

    Our software:

    • Captures the entire teaching workload of a department or school, including research student supervisionProvides a synoptic view of workload across the academic staff of the unit
    • Provides an accurate, rational, equitable and transparent mechanism to allocate teaching workload
    • Enables staff to quickly access their teaching commitments via the World-wide Web
    • Estimates the forward workload to meet future demands.

    The Opportunity

    We are seeking a software re-seller or systems integrator to incorporate this staff management software.

    The University of Sheffield has developed an advanced software package for Neuro-Fuzzy Network Modelling. This technique has been proven in a number of engineering applications such as data mining, pattern recognition, and process control/simulation

    The key features of interest in this proprietary software are:

    • Data mining and data visualisation in 2D and 3D
    • Input Selection for determining important input variables using statistical indices
    • Data Granulation for extracting knowledge out of a database
    • Model creation and optimisation for developing the modelling structure

    Intellectual Property

    Intellectual property in this software has been protected under the patent application WO 2006/103451

    The Opportunity

    The software has already been successfully utilised by companies with a need for a systematic method of generating neuro-fuzzy network models for non-linear high dimensional systems.  Applications have included :

    • The properties of heat treated steel based on the chemical composition
    • The outcome of heat treatment regimes on steels 
    • Patient ventilation performance in an Intensive Care Unit
