The CDS Information Hub
Résumé
The present status of the CDS information hub, with SIMBAD, VizieR, and ALADIN, is demonstrated, in particular in terms of links with other services such as the ADS, journals, and observatory archives. The XML operational developments, e.g., in ALADIN, are shown, in particular the Astrores proposed standard for tabular data. The prototype cross-correlator developed in the framework of the `ESO-CDS Data Mining project' is also presented.
