title: OpenLabs advanced instrument workstation services.
abstract: The advanced instrument workstation (AIW) is one of a number of system modules developed in the OpenLabs project, offering advanced services that complement the basic services available from laboratory information systems (LIS) in general. The AIW services relate to instrument interfacing, user interfacing, quality control, calibration verification, patient result validation, local and remote fault diagnosis and maintenance, and external quality assessment (EQA) by external organisations.
