阿塔卡马大型毫米/亚毫米阵列 (ALMA) 从建设到全面运营的过渡带来了挑战，不仅需要拥有功能齐全且稳定的软件子系统，而且还需要开发一个从提案准备到向 ALMA 用户交付最终数据产品的单一实体完美运行的系统。这尤其具有挑战性，因为不同的子系统必须不断更新和改进，以适应新的观测模式和不断增强的能力。我们介绍了目前在 ALMA 运营中开发和使用的不同离线子系统的最新进展和未来举措：提案准备、提交和观察准备（观察工具和提交服务器）、提案审查流程（Ph1M）、项目跟踪（项目跟踪器、生命周期）、观察簿记（班次日志工具）、校准器数据库（源目录）、观察监测和控制（操作监测和控制工具）、 动态调度程序、数据缩减管道、质量保证和趋势分析 (AQUA)、存档以及科学门户等其他用户支持系统。
The transition from construction to full operations of the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) brings the challenge to have not only software subsystems that are functional and stable but also to develop a system that works flawlessly as a single entity from proposal preparation to the delivery of the final data products to ALMA users. This is especially challenging as the different subsystems have to be constantly updated and improved to accommodate new observing modes and increasing capabilities. We present recent progress and future initiatives in the different offline subsystems that are currently being developed and used in ALMA operations: proposal preparation, submission and observation preparation (Observing Tool and submission server), proposal review process (Ph1M), project tracking (Project Tracker, Life Cycle), observation bookkeeping (Shift Log Tool), calibrator database (Source Catalogue), monitor and control of observations (Operations Monitoring and Control tool), dynamic scheduler, data reduction pipeline, quality assurance and trend analysis (AQUA), archive, as well as additional user support systems such as the Science Portal.
