Abstract

ABSTRACT A stand-alone version of the instrument automation and control program SPECOS (SPECtroscopy Operating System) has been developed for general laboratory data management, for data manipulation and processing, and for generation of presentation graphics and high quality plots. For data management, this program (SPECOS SA) provides features for data file creation, storage management, record keeping, report generation and automatic multiple file processing. For data manipulation it provides standard arithmetic functions, statistical procedures, smoothing, fitting, derivative and integral calculations, auto-and cross-correlation, and a wide variety of data transformations. The graphing and plotting functions support a variety of plotters and laser printers allowing variation of pen (color), line widths and types, plot symbols, bar graph characteristics, multipanel plots and complex graticule outlines.
