ScienceML

• This we define as a group of defined formats that support scientific data, note taking and sketches

• XSIL (Scientific data Interchange) from Caltech defines metadata needed to specify scientific data files including high level parameters and methods needed to read data

• VML is Vector Graphics Mark up Language

• DrawML is designed to support simple technical drawings (easier than VML but VML should be able to do this?)

• VRML (3D scenes) reimplemented in XML as X3D

• MathML Mathematical Expressions

• ChemML Support Chemistry

• Above exist already but each field needs to get to work on:

• technicalfieldML Supports special needs of each discipline technicalfield (e.g. botanyML supports plants, ChemML molecules etc.)
