Integrated Spectral Analysis Workbench software (ISAW) was started to create a "Network-Based, Browser-Oriented, and Platform-Independent system for Instrumentation Control and Data Reduction/Visualization". In the first phase of this project we have emphasized a Platform-Independent Data Reduction/Visualization.

ISAW is used to read, manipulate, view, and save neutron scattering data. ISAW can read data from IPNS run files or NeXus files and can merge and sort data from separate measurements.

By choosing the Java language for our code, we maintain platform independence and the ability to make the software network-based. What's New describes the current activities and status of the project.
