The NIST s Thermodynamics Research Center (TRC) has a large collection of pure-fluid thermodynamic and transport properties tables of recommended values and correlations exist both in paper form and in a computer database [12], The TRC has also produced books with comprehensive compilations for organic compounds (sometimes also available as software) for vapor pressure [17], liquid density [18], and ideal-gas heat capacity [29], in addition to a compilation on virial coefficients [32]. Their major archival database of experimental pure-component and mixture data is called Source [97] it is currently available only to members of their consortium. Some data for mixtures of organic compounds are published in the periodical Selected Data on Mixtures [49]. More information is at http //trc.nist.gov.

SMEDIS is the first project to combine scientific assessment with validation against observed data, including these complex effects, and to apply its procedure to a large number (almost 30) of dense gas dispersion models—the majority in use across Europe. Furthermore, the goal of SMEDIS is to encourage continual model improvement, rather than to rank a set of models at one instant in time, by leaving in place a protocol and archived database of test cases, which can be used by all DGD developers and users in the future.

This is a combined archival database with 171629 reactions originating predominantly from about 300 Journals and some patents. It comprises the Theilheimer databa.se (46785 reactions 1946-1980), the core database from the former ORAC system (about 65 000 reactions, mainly 1980-1991), and several databases produced by MDL (CLF Current Literature File 36600 general synthetic reactions 1983-1991. CHIRAS 13 200 asymmetric reactions 1975-1991. Metalysis 12000 metal-mediated reactions 1974-1991). Although the time coverage of RefLib does really start at 1946, the onset of Theilheimer, there are almost 4000 reactions with pre-1946 references (2600 with literature only before that year).

In 1971 the Protein Data Bank - PDB [146] (see Section 5.8 for a complete story and description) - was established at Brookhaven National Laboratories - BNL -as an archive for biological macromolccular cr7stal structures. This database moved in 1998 to the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics -RCSB. A key component in the creation of such a public archive of information was the development of a method for effreient and uniform capture and curation of the data [147], The result of the effort was the PDB file format [53], which evolved over time through several different and non-uniform versions. Nevertheless, the PDB file format has become the standard representation for exchanging inacromolecular information derived from X-ray diffraction and NMR studies, primarily for proteins and nucleic acids. In 1998 the database was moved to the Research Collaboratory for Structural Bioinformatics - RCSB. 

Derwent Information Ltd. Derwent Information Ltd., previously known as Derwent PubHcations Ltd., changed its name in the 1990s to reflect more accurately the fact that its products go far beyond traditional pubHcations. Derwent provides a wide spectmm of information products and services, many of them relating to patents. Derwent also produces important databases (qv) of nonpatent information from the pharmaceutical and agncultural chemical Hterature. These products and services encompass alerting tools for current awareness, systems for retrospective search and retneval, and means for document deHvery and archiving. 

The LIMS software is essentially a database for tracking, reporting, and archiving lab data as well as scheduling and guiding lab activities. Graphical and statistical treatment of data for improved process control (qv) as well as preparation of certificates of analysis (COA) for the customer are some of the other features of a comprehensive LIMS package (30). 

Mass storage device. Typically, fixed-head hard disk drives are used to store ac tive data, including on-line and historical databases and non-memory-resident programs. Memory-resident programs are stored to allow loading at system startups. The tape drives are used for archives and backups. 

Historical DataBase Subsystem We have discussed the use of on-hne databases. An historical database is built similar to an on-line database. Unlike their on-line counterparts, the information stored in a historical database is not normally accessed directly by other subsystems for process control and monitoring. Periodic reports and longterm trends are generated based on the archived data. The reports are often used for long-term planning and system performance evaluations such as statistical process (quality) control. The trends may be used to detect process drifts or to compare process variations at different times. 

The historical data is sampled at user-specified intervals. A typical process plant contains a large number of data points, but it is not feasible to store data for all points at all times. The user determines if a data point should be included in the list of archive points. Most systems provide archive-point menu displays. The operators are able to add or delete data points to the archive point hsts. The samphng periods are normally some multiples of their base scan frequencies. However, some systems allow historical data samphng of arbitraiy intei vals. This is necessaiy when intermediate virtual data points that do not have the scan frequency attribute are involved. The archive point lists are continuously scanned bv the historical database software. On-line databases are polled for data. The times of data retrieval are recorded with the data ootained. To consei ve storage space, different data compression techniques are employed by various manufacturers. 

As already stated above, the database has been developed using ISIS software. The program operation is very simple, and about 30 min to learn the particular commands of this structure-searching program. ISIS provides both storage and retrieval of chemical structures. It is also possible to store text and numeric data into database entries. Because molecular structures are searchable in many ways, ISIS software is an excellent tool for exploiting data, and not simply archiving it. 

Databases are the lingua franca—the common language—of bioinformatics. Although the kind of data archived may vary, nonetheless, the use, creation, and manipulation of databases remains the most critical feature of modern-day bioinformatics, both as a discipline in its own right and as a support for... 

A key factor in determining an ROI on the basis of increased efficiencies is to be able to apply metrics to the existing processes commonly this requires measurement of the process before the implementation of a new system and then a corresponding measurement of the process after implementation. In the case of ELN systems, this information can also be supplemented through the use of the ELN database itself, for example, by looking at the number of completed experiments created per scientist per week. These data can then be compared with an historical analysis of data from paper notebook archives on scientific productivity by similar groups. 

Experiments may need to be viewed or presented 30 or 40 years after they are saved in a database. For instance, a lawyer may ask for experimental documents to defend a company in a product liability lawsuit. An important requirement here is that the document format should be independent of the application used to create the information, and that ideally the long-term archive format should not be based on a proprietary technology. This is a...

Chemical Physics Preprint Database. This database [81] is a fully automated electronic archive and distribution server intended to provide a means for rapid and efficient preprint distribution within the international theoretical chemical physics community. A preprint is a copy of a paper that has been submitted for publication. This database has been designed to be a useful and freely available tool for education and research. It allows investigators to submit and retrieve electronic copies of preprints via the Internet. Access for retrieval and listing of papers in the database is possible through WWW servers, anonymous ftp, or e-mail. Currently research papers are submitted to the databases via e-mail. This project is a joint effort by the Department of Chemistry at Brown University and the Theoretical Chemistry and Molecular Physics Group at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. The homepage of Chemical Physics Preprint Database is http // www.chem.brown.edu/chem-ph.html. (For a more... 

Our specimen database also contains additional parameters that are used to control the data collection process and to provide archival information to each data file written by the collection process. The console display for editing the specimen database is of the "fill in the form" type and the user revises the parameters for each specimen position (including the zeroth) as required. New parameter values are checked for validity at the time they are entered. All other parameters retain the values they possessed during the previous set of analyses. Thus, only minor changes are needed to program for a set of samples similar to the previous ones. All records in the database can be cleared if the analytical conditions are markedly different.
