## Description

- description: " The Calphad method uses models which depend on assessed parameters
    to  describe the thermodynamic properties of materials. These model parame ters
    are assessed by researchers and students using experimental and theoret ical data
    on binary and ternary systems which can be merged to multicom ponent databases
    and used to calculate properties and simulate processes for  a wide range of materials.
    There are several di erent software using the Calphad method for calculations
    and they can use slightly di erent models and database formats. This paper will
    give a short background to the current state of database develop ment and proposes
    a new format based on the eXtensive Markup Language  (XML) as a uni ed database
    format. This change is particularly important  as several new models for the pure
    elements are currently introduced in the  Calphad databases."
