NAME: CHEMIND-L - Chemical Structure Indexing.
Description: The Chemical Structure Indexing Discussion List
(CHEMIND-L) serves as a forum for discussion of questions relat-
ing to indexing and searching chemical structure information. News
and questions about new developments in indexing and searching
techniques, new structure searchable databases and systems (online,
in-house or on CD-ROM), and developments in existing databases
are suitable as topics for discussion. It is intended that the full range
of indexing techniques from textual codes to graphical structures
will be covered and there should be no restriction on the range of
types of structure - specific structures of all types (organic, inorganic,
organometallic, polymers, macromolecules, etc.) and Markush struc-
tures typically found in patents although now finding wider use.
This list was founded in July 1994 and is maintained and supported
by Derwent Information Ltd, who specialize in supply of scientific
and patent information in a variety of forms. The owner of the list is
Bill Town, Development Manager for Polymer & General Chemistry
at Derwent.
Subjects: chemical structure indexing, searching, databases.
