The goal is to strengthen the chemical sciences by foster communication among all the important stakeholders. At a recent Roundtable meeting, information technology was identified as an issue of increasing importance to all sectors of the chemical enterprise. This book is the result of a workshop convened to explore this topic.Compass series (Washington, D.C.)ChemistryData processingCongressesChemistry, TechnicalData processingCongressesCommunication in chemistryTechnological innovationsCongressesChemistryData processingChemistry, TechnicalData processingCommunication in chemistryTechnological innovations542/.85National Research Council (U.S.).Chemical Sciences Roundtable.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910960861103321Impact of advances in computing and communications technologies on chemical science and technology4447238UNINA
