==History== | |||
DataMelt has its roots in [[particle physics]] where data mining is a primary task. It was created as [[jHepWork]] project in 2005 and it was initially written for data analysis for [[particle physics]]<ref> | |||
HEP data analysis using jHepWork and Java, arXiv:0809.0840v2, ANL-HEP-CP-08-53 preprint. CERN preprint, [https://arxiv.org/abs/0809.0840/ arXiv:0809.0840v2] | |||
</ref> using the [[Java (programming language)|Java]] software concept for [[International linear collider|International Linear Collider]] project developed at [[SLAC]]. Later versions of jHepWork were modified for general public use (for scientists, engineers, students for educational purpose) since the International Linear Collider project has stalled. In 2013, jHepWork was renamed to DataMelt and become a general-purpose community-supported project. | |||
The main source of the reference is the book "Scientific Data analysis using Jython Scripting and Java" | |||

which discusses data-analysis methods using [[Java (programming language)|Java]] and [[Jython]] scripting. | |||
Later it was also discussed in the German Java SPEKTRUM journal | |||

DataMelt – Werkbank für technisch-wissenschaftliche Berechnungen und Visualisierungen mit Java und Jython. by Rohe Klaus. Java SPEKTRUM.

The string "HEP" in the project name "jHepWork" abbreviates "High-Energy Physics". But due to a wide popularity outside this area of physics, it was renamed to [[SCaViS]] ('''S'''cientific '''C'''omputation and '''Vis'''ualization Environment). This project existed for 3 years before it was renamed to DataMelt (or, in short, DMelt). | |||
