Figure 17 Yearly number of publications in the CJACS file mentioning Chem3D, ChemDraw, or Cambridge Scientific Computing (CSC). The search queries were (1) chem3d or chem(w)3d, (2) cambridge(w)scientific(w)computing, (3) chemdraw, (4) chemwindow, and (5) chemintosh.

Data for a selection of chemistry software vendors are displayed in Figure 21. Shown are the total number of papers that mentioned the names of these companies in CJACS for the entire 12-year period, 1982—1993. At the top, with more than 200 papers each, are the three large modeling companies. Tripos, MSI, and BIOSYM. Note that MDL Information Systems ranks second after Tripos in terms of literature citations. Besides these big four, Serena Software, Chemical Design Ltd., and Cambridge Scientific Computing fall in a middle tier. There is also a fairly broad representation of other software companies receiving mention in the papers of the ACS journals.

ChemDraw (the Macintosh software package from Cambridge Scientific Computing which is the ICI chemist s preferred method for drawing high-quality structures for pasting into documents) (26-27). 

To solve this problem Telesystemes has designed in 1987 a DARC-Fl transfer format for both PCs and mainframe and also in 1987/1988, in cooperation with Janssen Pharmaceutica of Beerse, Belgium has developed an interface between DARC-SMS and the ChemDraw software produced by Cambridge Scientific Computing. During 1988 Telesystemes was developing PC/host software named D ARC-LINK 1.
