NeXus Software Status

چکیده
NeXus is a joint effort of both the synchrotron and neutron scattering community to develop a common data exchange format based on HDF. In order to simplify access to NeXus files a NeXus-API is provided. This NeXus-API has been restructured and expanded to cover both HDF versions 4 and 5. Only small changes to the API were necessary in order to accomplish this. A foundation was laid to extend the NeXus-API to further file formats. A new NeXus-API for IDL based on the IDL C interface has been implemented. Thus both HDF-4 and HDF-5 NeXus files can be processed from IDL. The time-of-flight data analysis program IDA has been adapted to support NeXus. The neutron ray tracing package McStas from Risoe has been updated to write NeXus files through the NXdict-API.

NCL: a C++ class library for interpreting data files in NEXUS format
UNLABELLED The NEXUS Class Library (NCL) is a collection of C++ classes designed to simplify interpreting data files written in the NEXUS format used by many computer programs for phylogenetic analyses. The NEXUS format allows different programs to share the same data files, even though none of the programs can interpret all of the data stored therein. Because users are not required to reformat...

متن کاملA Visual and Portable Tool for Robot Programming
Programming software for complex robotic systems requires powerful tools that allow the programmers to focus on the functionality of their application without getting lost in low-level details (communication software, operating systems, etc), while guaranteeing robustness, flexibility, and efficiency. In previous works a software integrating system called NEXUS was presented that achieves these...
متن کاملThe application of the NeXus data format to ISIS muon data
Although originally designed by and for the use of the Neutron and X-ray communities, the flexibility of the NeXus data format makes it equally suitable for storing data gathered from µSR experiments. Furthermore, its use should open up the possibility of sharing software beyond the immediate muon community; giving access to the many tools that are already in existence for manipulating NeXus an...
