QBench is a cloud-based Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) designed to help laboratories manage samples, workflows, data, inventory, reporting, quality processes, and client interactions in one platform.
Labs use QBench to manage operations from order placement and sample processing through results and automated reporting. The platform is highly configurable, allowing laboratories to build workflows, define custom data fields, and automate processes around the way their lab operates.
QBench helps reduce manual work by connecting instruments, software, and other systems through file parsers and a robust API. These integrations can automate data transfer, reduce repetitive data entry, and lower the risk of transcription errors.
Key capabilities include sample and workflow management, configurable workflows and custom fields, workflow automation, instrument and system integrations, file parsing, API connectivity, inventory management, client portals, automated reporting, analytics, and integrated Quality Management System (QMS) capabilities.
QBench is designed to adapt as laboratory processes change. Teams can modify workflows, fields, and automations without relying heavily on custom development.
As a cloud-based platform, QBench brings laboratory data, workflows, automation, quality management, and reporting into one centralized system. Customers are also supported by a team that includes former bench scientists who understand laboratory workflows and provide guidance during implementation and ongoing use.

Apache Axiom
The Apache Axiom™ library offers an implementation of an XML Infoset compliant object model that enables the on-demand construction of an object tree. It features an innovative "pull-through" model that permits users to disable tree construction and directly utilize the underlying pull event stream through the StAX API. Additionally, it incorporates support for XML Optimized Packaging (XOP) and MTOM, allowing XML to efficiently and transparently handle binary data. This combination results in an easy-to-use API backed by a highly efficient architecture. Originally developed as part of Apache Axis2, Apache Axiom serves as the foundation of Apache Axis2; nonetheless, it stands alone as a unique XML Infoset model with advanced functionalities, making it suitable for independent use without reliance on Apache Axis2. Overall, its design principles prioritize efficiency and flexibility for developers working with XML data.

Apache Xalan
The Apache Xalan Project is responsible for creating and managing libraries and applications that convert XML documents through the use of XSLT standard stylesheets. Our various subprojects employ Java and C++ programming languages to develop the XSLT libraries. In April 2014, we released version 2.7.2 of Xalan-Java. Developers can download this latest version, Xalan-Java 2.7.2, for their projects. Ongoing development updates are available in our subversion repository. This recent release addresses a security vulnerability that was identified in version 2.7.1. Although the previous distributions of Xalan-J 2.7.1 can still be accessed through the Apache Archives, our project is considered mature and stable. Discussions regarding potential support for XPath-2 have been initiated, and we welcome your involvement in this significant overhaul of the library. You are encouraged to engage with us by following our progress and sharing your insights on the Java users and developers mailing lists, where your contributions would be greatly appreciated.
