Cross-crystal Likelihood Phase Probability Estimation and Refinement

There are currently two major pressures on crystallographic computing: * Increased automation to increase throughput in line with genomics applications. * Increased data complexity, as data from more sources is combined and carried through the whole calculation to solve more difficult problems. The Clipper project is an initiative to address these pressures. The aim of the project is to produce a set of object-oriented libraries for the organisation of crystallographic data and the performance of crystallographic computation. The libraries are designed as a framework for new crystallographic software, which will allow the full power of modern programming techniques to be exploited by the developer. This will lead to greater functionality from simpler code which will be easier to develop and debug.
