碩士 === 國立陽明大學 === 醫學工程研究所 === 94 === Setting up a database system is an important area in bioinformatics. Unified Modeling Language (UML) can aid the design of such database system because it not only provides a complete overview of the system, but also increases the design efficiency, reduces the probability of errors, and simplifies the overall system design. Therefore, the difference between the system designers and actual users in practical uses can be minimized. The purpose of this study is to complete the automatic updates of our previously developed dengue virus relational database and add the functionalities of logic (AND/OR) in the search criteria of its basic search function through the help of UML in analysis and design. This eliminates the necessity of daily updates performed by database system administrator as well as increases the search functionality. In conclusion, the end users will be able to easily query the database system after the implementation of UML and logic search criteria.
