Abstract
From mid-2004 onwards, the major nuclear reaction databases (EXFOR, CINDA and ENDF) and services (Web and CD-ROMs retrieval systems and specialized applications) have been functioning within a modern computing environment as multiplatform software, working under several operating systems with relational databases. Subsequent work at the IAEA has focused on three areas of development: revision and extension of the contents of the databases; extension and improvement of the functionality and integrity of the retrieval systems; development of software for database maintenance and system deployment.
