The mmCIF Software Developers' Workshop was held October 17-19, 1997 at Rutgers University. Some of the topics that were addressed in the workshop include: adapting existing applications to mmCIF, creating new applications to exploit the capabilities of DDL2 and mmCIF, use of existing mmCIF software tools and packages, and detailed presentations on the content of the DDL2 and mmCIF dictionaries. Discussion also focused on the requirements for new mmCIF software and dictionary content, and on the coordination of these ongoing development activities. There was a mix of tutorial, hands-on and discussion sessions.

This workshop was sponsored by the Center for Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science (DIMACS) and co-funded by the Rutgers University Bioinformatics Initiative, the National Science Foundation (NSF), and the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr). Silicon Graphics provided the computers used in the workshop.

Organizers: Helen M. Berman, Paula Fitzgerald, and John Westbrook
