Molecular Dynamics Markup Language is used to help make sense of the
huge
amounts of data typical of chemical simulations. The language tags
constructs
such as atom, bond and molecule to mark up the simulation data in a
MoDL file.
The MoDL file is converted to a VRML world using a program that uses
the Perl
XML::Parser module, and the visualizations can then be viewed using a
Virtual
Reality Modeling Language (VRML) plug-in inside a Web browser. This
page
includes links to a MoDL DTD, tutorial and authoring tool.
