Abstract: The emerging wave of scientific revolution and industrial transformation is burgeoning, with technologies such as big data and artificial intelligence exerting a profound impact on the information resources management discipline. Under the background of large language models（LLMs）, instruction engineering guides the generation of model results through high-quality, systematic and procedural instruction design, which is an important approach to efficiently leverage the capabilities of LLMs and can be applied to resolve discipline-related issues. This article firstly introduces the concept of instruction engineering, and then thoroughly analyzes the constituent elements and design patterns of instructions, as well as the features and significance of instruction engineering. We also discuss the construction path of instruction engineering empowered information resources management. In the future, research and development in instruction engineering should focus on the construction of both general and domain-specific instruction engineering, standardization, intellectual property protection, security and systematic testing and assessment, aiming to enable instructions to effectively demonstrate their efficacy in complex application scenarios across various industries.

Key words: Instruction engineering, Large language model, Information resources management, Data intelligence empowerment
