What's in a Name? Quite a Lot, as it Happens!
Mark Borkum, Jeremy Graham Frey · Chemistry International · 2015
Names are essential to data manipulation and data interpretation. IUPAC standardizes the names that chemists use in their scholarly works, which it publishes as a suite of terminology, nomenclature and ontology, the IUPAC colour books. Currently, machine-accessible representations of these publications are not available on the Web. In this article, we argue the case for Web-based, machine-accessible representations of IUPAC publications.
