A Question and Answer Session with Professor Henry Rzepa-Whence WEOs?

摘要

Web-Enhanced Objects (also known as WEOs) are components of articles which allow the communication of science in a way which is not possible in print. WEOs, however, are not as heavily used as they could be. At a very basic level, supplying certain types of data in a standard format can be the basis for a WEO, such as a CIF file for crystallographic data, a movie file for showing simulations of reactions, or a VRML file for presenting complex 3-D graphics. More information about these file formats can be found on the ACS website in the FAQ for WEOs.
