Conclusions
n
nesstar
  • NESSTAR is a software suite that is rapidly
    gaining interest across the world before it is
    even released. This is due at the end of the
    year. The potential for creating a data-Web is
    of interest to many professional organisations,
    whether for end users who wish to find and
    combine many tools and resources at the desktop,
    or publishers who wish to increase the managed
    dissemination of data. The project can be
    followed via the Web site, http//www.nesstar.org.
