Abstract: We have developed a public science archive system, Subaru-Mitaka-Okayama-Kiso Archive system (SMOKA), as a successor of Mitaka-Okayama-Kiso Archive (MOKA) system.SMOKA provides an access to the public data of Subaru Telescope, the 188 cm telescope at Okayama Astrophysical Observatory, and the 105 cm Schmidt telescope at Kiso Observatory of the University of Tokyo.Since 1997, we have tried to compile the dictionary of FITS header keywords.The accomplishment of the dictionary enabled us to construct an unified public archive of the data obtained with various instruments at the telescopes.SMOKA has two kinds of user interfaces; Simple Search and Advanced Search.Novices can search data by simply selecting the name of the target with the Simple Search interface.Experts would prefer to set detailed constraints on the query, using the Advanced Search interface.In order to improve the efficiency of searching, several new features are implemented, such as archive status plots, calibration data search, an annotation system, and an improved Quick Look Image browsing system.We can efficiently develop and operate SMOKA by adopting a three-tier model for the system.Java servlets and Java Server Pages (JSP) are useful to separate the front-end presentation from the middle and back-end tiers. 1.
