Abstract An online computer program to monitor kinetic enzyme assays is described. The program analyzes the kinetic data in a manner similar to the way a technologist handles data in a manual procedure, taking into account the lag phase, substrate depletion phase, and linear portion of the rate curve. Thus, complete automation of even complex kinetic assays has been made practical. The program has been implemented for routine use in a clinical laboratory computer system ("LABCOM"), and the results correlate well with those obtained by established methods of manual data-handling procedures

Improvements in the performance of a laboratory computer system do not necessarily require the replacement of major portions of the system and may not require the acquisition of any hardware at all. Major bottlenecks may exist in the ways that the operating system manages its resources and the algorithm used for timesharing decisions. Moreover, significant throughput improvements may be attainable by switching to a faster storage device if substantial disk activity is performed. In this study the fractions of time used for each of the types of tasks a laboratory computer system performs (e.g. applications programs, disk transfer, queue cycler) are defined and measured. Methods for reducing the time fractions of the various types of overhead are evaluated by doing before and after studies. The combined results of the three studies indicated that a 50% improvement could be gained through system tuning and faster storage without replacement of the computer itself
