Abstract: The informationized scientific research management is one of the main channels to improve the level of research management. By imploring adaptable patterns of research management in institute, functions of the informationized system in scientific research management, and effects of the informationized system in the innovation of research management, this article presents some thoughts on the innovation of the informationized research management in the era of big data to deal with the problems therein.
1.Current problems of research management informatization
(1)The information construction of research management is outdated and presents lower level, while research institutes lack their own research management information system.
(2)The recognition and emphasis by the leadership and researchers of institutes have direct impacts on the information construction of research management.
(3)Lack of interdisciplinary talents.
(4)The leadership and researchers have biased perceptions on research management.
(5)Inaccurate orientation of research management, and the lack of innovative thinking and awareness on it.
(6)The misunderstanding of project management that only the project approval and declaration are highlighted as the project closure is neglected.
2.Discussions on information construction model of research management in research institutes
At present, network construction has provided flawless basic service for information construction. We can completely utilize computer information technologies based on the network, to speed up theinformatization course of research management, and improve its level.
For better processing of research management information, a complete information system must be developed. To start from the management of information content and combine with the management requirements, we can realize theinformatization of research management, as well as the feedback and utilization of information collection, processing and storage in a good information system, which can make research management play a great role in a short time.
With the increasing number and funding of research projects in research institutes, information construction has made higher and more stringent requirements for research management. The core of research management in research institutes is to establish an efficient and orderly management system, and to build a dynamic, passionate, and competitive management team.
With regard to the current problems of research managementinformatization, we have made the following suggestions for its development:
(1)Improve the leadership′s awareness on the development and construction needs of research managementinformatization.
(2)Increase the investment for the buildup of research information resources.
(3)Strengthen the talented workforce construction for research managementinformatization.
(4)Design and development of suitable research management information system for research institutes.
3.Practical cases of research management information construction -- Core functions of research management information system
Naturally, the research management information system has multiple functions, but the more prominent ones definitely are project management, result management and personnel authority priority management. Ultimately, the higher requirement and upgrade function of the system are to set up research management knowledge system.
3.1 Research project management function: Research project management is the focus and lifeblood of research management; therefore, the project management module naturally is the uppermost priority within the research management information system.
3.2 Intelligent analysis and decision-assisting function: Through its backstage database, the system can provide data aggregation, statistical analysis and intelligent decision analysis for users to get the overall situation of the research, and create favorable conditions for the formulation and implementation of research policies to timely adjust research direction and integrate the predominance of disciplines.
3.3 Personnel information authority management: Research management is inseparable from users of different roles, such as ordinary researchers, experts and scholars, research assistants and management staff. In consideration of the confidentiality of research work, the research management system should set different permissions for each type personnel according to the needs of research management jobs. Another consideration is that research management must have a comprehensive and dynamic understanding about researchers and research-related information, to integrate research information and academic resources, to optimize research academic teams and make breakthrough on high-level scientific research problems, and also have an accurate and comprehensive knowledge about the research results such as books, papers, patents and achievements rewards published and got by researchers. 
3.4 Establish research management knowledge system: The system of research management information platform can collect and sort out research management data, including in-depth recording of cases and information interactions drew from the research management process, providing system data resources, and promoting the integration of research institutions to form a knowledge-based management system through classified storage and knowledge extraction, thereby to improve the self-learning and technological innovation abilities of research institutions.
4.Role and effect of research management information system on research management innovation
The research management information system is able to: (1) make research topics be scientific; (2) prevent duplicate funding requests or results-reusing for the same topic; and (3) conduct repeated research on different levels or among different fields for the same or very similar problems.
5.Reflections on information construction innovation of research management in research institutesin the era of big data
5.1 The research management in research institutes is essentially inseparable from research.
5.2 The research management in research institutes needs the management of business technologies.
5.3 The research management in research institutes demands research management staff to act with international vision.
6.Main conclusions and epilogue
Research managementinformatization is a major innovation in the transition from traditional to new management methods, an important part of the information construction, as well as the trend of popularization and development of informatization. Research institutes should pay adequate attention to it, while overcome various difficulties and develop a feasible development strategy, to virtually improve the efficiency of research management. We should stand on a new starting point, adhere to the guidance of the scientific outlook on development, forge ahead in an innovative and enterprising spirit, and further deepen the reform of the research management system.
Information system construction is a systemic project. Each research institute should conduct demand analysis, set up system plans and objectives, and design various modules for the system according to its own situation. In fact, at every stage of the development of system implementation, it is more important to broaden minds and lay foundation for the information system of multi-intelligent research services in the future.
