Preventing environmental pollution and reporting environmental impact is an important task for manufacturing facilities. ERA environmental (ERA) provides software solutions to cope with the challenges that are associated with quantifying the environmental impact and simplifying manufacturing facilities' regulatory reporting. Due to the success of ERA's software solutions, ERA's software is now widely used by companies around the world. An increasing number of companies in various fields are switching to ERA's software solutions. However, such business growth causes several challenges in ERA's database- centric applications: the applications need to be customizable to meet users' needs and easy to maintain. Although the goal of this proposal is to conduct practical research to help ERA solve the aforementioned challenges, such challenges are not unique to ERA. Similar problems exist in other large-scale database- centric applications, and are an important topic in software engineering research and practice.In order to improve the functionality and quality of ERA's database-centric applications, my students and I will develop a series of research techniques and frameworks. The outcomes of this work will advance state-of-the-art in improving the quality of database-centric applications, and improve both the software solutions and the engineering methodology in ERA. By completing this research program, we will help ERA significantly improve the quality and functionality of their database-centric application, and will successfully train 2 PhD and 4 thesis-based MSc students to become experts in the field.

防止环境污染和报告环境影响是制造设施的重要任务。ERA environmental（ERA）提供软件解决方案，以科普与量化环境影响和简化制造设施监管报告相关的挑战。由于ERA软件解决方案的成功，ERA的软件现在被世界各地的公司广泛使用。越来越多的公司在各个领域正在转向年代的软件解决方案。然而，这样的业务增长在ERA的以数据库为中心的应用程序中引起了几个挑战：应用程序需要可定制以满足用户的需求并且易于维护。虽然本提案的目的是进行实际研究，帮助电子逆向拍卖解决上述挑战，但这些挑战并非电子逆向拍卖所独有。类似的问题也存在于其他以数据库为中心的大型应用中，是软件工程研究和实践中的一个重要课题，为了提高ERA以数据库为中心的应用的功能和质量，我和我的学生将开发一系列的研究技术和框架。这项工作的成果将推动提高以数据库为中心的应用程序的质量，并改进ERA的软件解决方案和工程方法。通过完成这项研究计划，我们将帮助ERA显著提高其以数据库为中心的应用程序的质量和功能，并将成功培养2名博士和4名基于论文的硕士生成为该领域的专家。
