  1. Building bridges for chemical informationInteroperability and the Blue Obelisk Noel M. O’Boyle, et a lot of al The Blue Obelisk is a group of people and projects with an interest in Open Data, Open Standards and/or Open Source in chemistry http://blueobelisk.org

  2. Open BabelInteroperability of chemical file formats • Support for interconversion of 111 chemical file formats • Can read 82 formats • Can write 85 formats

  3. Chemical Markup LanguageExchange of chemical information • File format designed for exchange and storage of chemical information • It is XML • Extensible – can store application-specific information • No need to write a parser

  4. CinfonyInteroperability of cheminformatics toolkits • Makes it easy to access different toolkits • Complementary features, different implementations of same features (e.g. 2D drawing) • Avoid vendor lock-in, balkanisation of field • Small and simple API: mol = cdk.readstring(“smi”, “CC(=O)Cl”) CDK OpenBabel

  5. cclibInteroperability in computational chemistry • A set of parsers and algorithms for computational chemistry log files • ADF, Firefly, GAMESS-UK, Molpro, ORCA, among others • Provides a simple and standard interface to the results of computational chemistry calculations • Goal isto facilitate the implementation of algorithms that are not specific to a particular computational chemistry package • Population analysis, for example
