Chempound -- a Web2.0-inspired repository for physical science data

Use the link to access the full text article published in the current issue of the open access Journal of Digital Information.  The abstract reads as follows: “Chempound is a new generation repository architecture based on RDF, semantic dictionaries and linked data. It has been developed to hold any type of chemical object expressible in CML and is exemplified by crystallographic experiments and computational chemistry calculations. In both examples, the repository can hold >50k entries which can be searched by SPARQL endpoints and pre-indexing of key fields. The Chempound architecture is general and adaptable to other fields of data-rich science.”
