Java Applet Client-Server Interface for a Complex Suite of Chemistry Applications
=abstract=
This paper describes a grapical interface for a complex suite of
programs allowing users to access locally and remotely the underlying
chemical software systems.  The non-triviality of this task is rooted
in the heterogeneous software (web-browsers and computers under
different operating systems) and language (JAVA, C++ and FORTRAN)
environments that have to communicate with each other.  The system,
however, is modularised in order to shield the user from this
complexity and to provide ease of further development.  This is
accomplished with a set of portable, public domain resources.  The
system is used to interface a demonstration of the chemical modeling
system REACTION.
