NAME

       libopenms - library for LC/MS data management and analysis

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the libopenms package that brings a library for LC/MS data management
       and analysis. 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.
