Abstract
This article highlights research from the last century that has provided the basis for the searching techniques that are used in present-day cheminformatics systems, and thus provides an acknowledgement of the contributions made by early pioneers in the field.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Cheminformatics is an open access journal publishing original peer-reviewed research in all aspects of cheminformatics and molecular modelling.
Coverage includes, but is not limited to:
chemical information systems, software and databases, and molecular modelling,
chemical structure representations and their use in structure, substructure, and similarity searching of chemical substance and chemical reaction databases,
computer and molecular graphics, computer-aided molecular design, expert systems, QSAR, and data mining techniques.
