The conference showed the growing acceptance and indeed demand by industry for Open Source and Open Standards-oriented solutions which are increasingly providing both superior technical solutions and lower cost end user service-oriented business cases.
The OpenTox presentation includes developments on numerous end user applications (built upon OpenTox APIs and web services) including ToxCreate, ToxPredict, Bioclipse, Qedit, Ches-Mapper, and integration examples with other platforms and initiatives such as CDK, ToxML, and ToxCast.
