NAME

       openms - library for LC/MS data management and analysis - metapackage

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the  openms  metapackage  that  depends on all the
       components of the OpenMS software framework  but  the  openms-doc  documentation  package.
       OpenMS  offers an infrastructure for the development of mass spectrometry-related software
       and powerful 2D and  3D  visualization  solutions.  OpenMS  offers  analyses  for  various
       quantitation  protocols,  including  label-free quantitation, SILAC, iTRAQ, SRM, SWATH… It
       provides build-in algorithms for de-novo identification and database search,  as  well  as
       adapters to other state-of-the art tools like X!Tandem, Mascot, OMSSA… OpenMS supports the
       Proteomics Standard Initiative (PSI) formats for MS data and supports easy integration  of
       tools  into  workflow  engines like Knime, Galaxy, WS-Pgrade, and TOPPAS via the TOPPtools
       concept and a unified parameter handling.
