Overall design of OpenMS.</div></div>
<p>Without looking into the details of OpenMS the situation is very simple. Applications can be implemented using OpenMS, which in turn relies on several external libraries: <em>Qt</em> provides visualization, database support and a platform abstraction layer. <em>Xerces</em> allows XML file parsing. <em>libSVM</em> is used for machine learning tasks. The <em>Computational Geometry Algorithms Library</em> (CGAL) provides data structures and algorithms for geometric computation. The <em>GNU Scientific Library</em>(GSL) is used for different mathematical and statistical tasks.</p>
<p>OpenMS can itself be subdivided into several layers. At the very bottom are the foundation classes which implement low-level concepts and data structures. They include basic concepts (e.g. factory pattern, exception handling), basic data structures (e.g. string, points, ranges) and system-specific classes (e.g. file system, time). The kernel classes, which capture the actual MS data and metadata, are built upon the foundation classes. Finally, there is a layer of higher-level functionality that relies on the kernel classes. This layer contains database I/O, file I/O supporting several file formats, data reduction functionality and all other analysis algorithms. </p>
