AnIML – An interview with Burkhard Schaefer

I recently posted an update on progress with AnIML (Analytical Information Markup Language) based on a visit to LabAutomation2011.  Since then, I have been invited by IQPC to conduct an interview with Burkhard Schaefer, Lead Architect for the AnIML project.  The interview, and transcript, is posted here.

It is interesting to speculate to what extent this container could serve as the core of a new type of LIMS or ELN where the complete sample or experiment record exists entirely independently of the ‘system’ that created it. There’s a podcast of an interview I conducted with Burkhard Schaefer here. [...]
