WIRED is the World-Wide Web Interactive Event
Display, a framework for building HEP event displays which can be used interactively
across the Internet using World-Wide Web.
It was developed by Mark Dönszelmann
(IT-IPT).
It is written
in Java.
Apart from it being a fully functional event display, its salient points are:
- it is portable across platforms
- it can be downloaded from a Web page as an applet
- event snapshots can be capsulated into Java beans and included in email
- it has an open interface for programming (Java) and data (XML) and can thus be easily
slotted in to (or out of) an existing architecture
- it is used by
a growing number of experiments.
