Online Bidding Management System Based on Web (chinese)
1.3国内外进展 1.3.1国外进展 在国外，以欧美国家为例，1993年9月，美国就提出了国家信息基础设施行动计划，掀起了全范围建设信息高速公路的热潮，欧美国家拥有电脑的家庭，企业众多，网民人数占总人口的2/3以上，随着电子商务的发展，许多知名的企业就开始了网上招投标系统，现如今，他们提供的招投标系统的项目也在逐年增多，不管你身处何处，只要你拥有一台电脑，成为网站注册用户，就可以登录网站发布招标信息和进行投标项目。如此方便快捷并且效率极高的体系，很容易被人们接受。因此，国外的许多专业的机构都认可了这种系统，并且在逐渐建立起一套完整的体系制度来完善这个系统。 1.3.2国内进展 在我国，当前电子商务的发展进入了密集的创新和快速的发展阶段，日益成为拉动我国消费需求，促进传统产业升级、发展现代服务业的重要引擎。近年来，在国家大力推进信息化和工业化融合的大环境下，我国服务行业、企业加快信息化建设步伐，不少企业纷纷进军电子商务，如邮政、旅游、保险、招投标等也都在已有的信息化的基础上，着力发展电子商务业务。 2009年,《中办的通知》和《国务院关于做好建设节约型社会近期重点工作通知》等文件通知均明文规定：“应逐步推行电子标书招投标”。电子招投标打造阳光采购、阳光交易。可以实现无纸化招投标，从而节约大量纸张和装订费用，真正做到了绿色低碳环保，而且其可以实现招投标的跨区域、低成本、高效率、更透明、现代化。 目前，国内一些地区和企业也对电子招投标有了不同程度的探索和开发利用，并且积累了一定的经验。四川省与2007年7月1日起采用了电子评标系统进行评标；2009年4月，国内首个建设工程远程评标系统在江苏苏州正式开通，并且于7月1日起在江苏省全省推行，2010年3月，北京市出台了《北京市建筑工程电子化招标实施细则（试行）》，规范了工程电子招投标活动；2010年8月宝钢国际委托的“网络设备及相关技术服务”项目顺利完成了网上招投标工作，该项目的实施标志着全国第一个网上全流程招投标项目的诞生。 1.4本文工作的主要内容 本文主要阐述的是在B/S工作模式下，利用SQL Server2008 和Visual Studio2010等开发工具来设计实现网上招投标系统。本系统总体上分为两个大的模块，首先进入的界面是普通用户的界面，在此界面上，用户可以实现招投标的管理，主要的功能为：用户注册、用户登录、发布招标信息、确认中标信息、修改个人信息、下载招标文件等；第二个大的模块是台管理员的界面，在管理员的界面中，可以实现的功能有：管理员的管理（添加和删除）、招标信息的管理、用户的管理、以及网站的维护等功能。 1.5相关技术介绍 1.5.1 ASP.NET平台介绍 2000年6月，微软发布了.NET，期望能够做到“让任何人从任何地方，在任何时候使用任何设备访问因特网上的服务”。这是一种在软件开发、工程和应用方面广泛地支持Internet和WEB的全新版本。微软的构想是：不在关注单个网、单个设备与Inter-net相连的互联网环境，而是要构建让所有的计算机群、相关设备和服务商协同工作的环境，即互联网提供的服务，要能够完成更高程度的自动化处理。 .NET框架是微软公司为开发应用程序创建的一个富有革命性的新的计算机平台。它包含了操作系统上软件开发的所有层，提供了任何平台上所曾见过的组件技术、呈现技术和数据技术最丰富的集成级别。.NET框架的体系结构包括五大部分：程序设计语言及公共语言规范；应用程序平台；ADO.NET及类库；公共语言运行时；程序开发环境。.NET框架下程序的编译过程： [pic 3] ASP.NET是一项微软公司的技术，是一种嵌入网页中的脚本可以由因特网服务器执行的服务器端脚本技术。ASP.NET使运行一些平常的任务如表单的提交客户端的身份验证、分布系统和网站配置变得非常简单。VisualStudio.NET是一套完整的开发工具集，用于生成ASP.NET WEB程序应用程序、XML WEB Service、桌面应用程序和移动应用程序。并提供了在设计、开发、调试和部署WEB应用程序和传统的客户端应用程序集时所需要的工具。 ASP.NET最基础的底层为网页，网页由System.Web.UI.Page 类来提供基础支持.使用代码后置的模式设置时，可以让ASP.NET运行时在加载网页时，有代码后置参数取得对应的类信息，以使用Reflection的方式开运行后置代码。ASP.NET的空间分为内置和外置两种，内置空间为HTML和用户控件。外置控件在使用之前需要将其添加到VS.NET环境中，然后就可以通过启动一个新项目来使用新的控件。ASP.NET中包含了五大常用的对象：（1）Application：用户包装HttpApplication 对象（2） Request：包装了 HttpRequest 对象（3） Response：包装了 HttpResponse 对象（4） Session：包装了 HttpSessionState 对象（5） Server：包装了 HttpServerUtility 对象。除上述这五大基本的空间外，ASP.NET还支持许多第三方的控件。ASP.NET提供了几个重要的优点： - 性能较强：ASP.NET是在服务器上运行的编译好的公共语言程序代码，可利用早期绑定、实时编译、本机优化等在编写代码之间提高了性能。 - 语言支持：ASP.NET开发的首选语言是C#及VB.NET，同时也支持多种语言的开发。 - 执行效率高：ASP.NET是把基于通用语言的程序在服务器IIS上运行。不像以前的ASP即时解释程序，而是将程序在服务器端首次运行时进行解释，这样的执行效果，会比一条一条的解释强很多。 - 自定义和宽展性：ASP.NET携带了一个设计周到的结构，使得开发人员可以在适当的级别插入代码。可以用自己编写的自定义组件扩展和替换。 - 安全性：借助内置的windows身份验证和基于每个应用程序的配置，可以保证应用程序的安全性。ASP.NET的授权方式有两种，一种是文件授权，一种是URL授权。 - 灵活性：由于ASP.NET基于公共语言运行库，因此WEB应用程序开发人员可以利用平台的灵活性。ASP.NET也与语言无关，所以可以选择合适应用程序的语言，或者跨多语言分割应用程序。 1.5.2 SQL Server 2008数据库概述 本系统采用的是SQL Server2008。SQL是结构化查询语言（Structured Query Language）的缩写。景观它被称为查询语言，但其功能包括数据查询、数据定义、数据操纵和数据控制四部分。SQL简洁方便、功能齐全，是目前应用最广的关系数据库。SQL Server2008出现在微软数据平台愿景上是因为它使得公司可以运行他们最关键的任务的应用程序。同时降低了基础设施、发送观察和信息给所有用户的成本。 SQL平台的特点： （1）SQL是类似于英语的自然语言，语法简单，且只有为数不多的几条命令。简洁易用。 （2）SQL是一体化的语言，它包括数据定义、数据查询、数据操纵和数据控制等方面的功能，可以完成数据库活动中的全部工作。 （3）SQL是一种非过程化的语言，用户不需要关系具体的操作过程，也不必了解数据的存取路径，可以降低开发和管理成本。 （4）SQL是一种面向集合的语言，每个命令的操作对象是一个或多个关系。 （5）SQL具有很高的安全性、可靠性和可扩展性来运行其最关键任务的应用程序。 SQL Server 2008除了企业版外，还有工作组版、速成版和移动版，用户可根据实际情况选择相应的SQL版本。SQL提供了完善的管理工具套件，主要包括： （1）SQL数据库引擎：用于存储、处理和保护数据的核心引擎，复制，全文搜索以及用于管理数据和XML数据的工具 （2）SQL Server Management Stdio：是一个集成环境，用于配置和管理SQL Server的主要组件
