79 <h2>What is <tt>digilib</tt></h2>
80
81 <ul>
82 <li><tt>digilib</tt> is a web based client/server technology for images.
83 The image content is processed on-the-fly by a Java Servlet on
84 the server side so that only the visible portion of the image is sent
85 to the web browser on the client side.
86 </li>
87 <li><tt>digilib</tt> supports a wide range of image formats and viewing options on
88 the server side while only requiring an internet browser with
89 javascript and a low bandwidth internet connection on the client side.
90 </li>
91 <li><tt>digilib</tt> enables very detailed work on an image as required by
92 scientists with elaborate zoom features like an option to show images
93 on the screen in their original size.
94 </li>
95 <li><tt>digilib</tt> facilitates cooperation of scientists over the internet and
96 novel uses of source material by image annotations and stable
97 references that can be embedded in URLs.
98 </li>
99 <li><tt>digilib</tt> is used in the <a href="http://penelope.unibe.ch/docuserver/echo/alcatraz/index3.html" >ALCATRAZ</a> framework of image, text and
100 annotation tools and many other projects.
101 </li>
102 <li><tt>digilib</tt> is Open Source Software under the General Public
103 License, jointly developed by the
104 <a href="http://www.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de">Max-Planck-Insitute for the History of Science</a>, the <a href="http://philoscience.unibe.ch">University of Bern</a>
105 and others.
