Welcome to mmlkit!!!

Saturday, December 15th, 2007

mmlkit is a Java-based toolkit for building presentation engines for content markup formats for mathematics.

The next generation of content markup formats for mathematics come with a flexible mechanism for defining mathematical notations (see e.g. the MathML3 Working Draft. mmlkit facilitates building presentation engines that use such notation definitions as a parameter.

The mmlkit toolkit currently has three components:

  • mmlproc - A library for transforming Content MathML/ OpenMath into Presentation MathML.
  • collector - A library for collecting notation definition from a document collection.
  • rndgrab - A library for selecting appropriate renderings for a content math object while considering the context and variant attributes of the rendering element
  • general - A library for the error handling and utility classes

The initial framework of the toolkit (in particular the mmlproc library) have been developed by Normen Müller and is currently maintained and extended by Christine Müller.
