Tools & Software
 
  • The NIST Content Checker Tool assists in the application of XML Schema specifications to real business transactions.  It seeks to complement XML schemas by providing a facility to precisely specify, share, extend, and test for conformance data being exchanged based on semantics not captured in an XML schema. http://www.mel.nist.gov/msid/Content_Checker/
     
  • Hydra3D is a 3-dimensional XML visualization and editing tool for UNIX variants and Windows. Documents are displayed as interactive 3D tree structures. Hydra3D uses QT for windowing, OpenGL for three-dimensional display, Xerces and Xalan for XML process.  http://sourceforge.net/projects/hydra3d
     
  • The NIST Quality of Design Tool is a diagnostic tool for checking an XML Schema for compliance with the encoded guidelines. The guidelines are stored in a repository of rules and a framework to publish and execute design rules. http://www.nist.gov/msid/QOD/
  • NeXus is a data format for the exchange of neutron and synchrotron scattering data between facilities and user institutions.  For further details and available tools, visit: http://www.nexus.anl.gov/
     
  • The Visualization and Virtual Reality for Manufacturing project examines the role of advanced user interfaces for manufacturing applications.   Details and prototype software are available at: http://ovrt.nist.gov/
     
  • The Analytical Information Markup Language (AnIML) project supports ASTM E13.15 "Analytical Data Management" in its work to define an XML standard for representing, managing and interchanging analytical chemistry data.  Details are available at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/animl/
     
  • The UnitsML project is developing a schema for encoding scientific units of measure in XML and a registry containing extensive information about scientific units
     
  • For NIST internal users only, a draft web site of the Digital Library of Mathematical Functions is available.
