• Java APPLET clients, written by Mark S. Ghiorso are version 1.1.0 of the MELTS and Calc APPLETS and version 1.0.0 of the pMELTS APPLET.  All three released November 1999.
• Java server front end and Java to C native method interface code, written by Mark S. Ghiorso is version 2.0.0.
• MELTS/Calc C server code is based upon UNIX MELTS 3.0.5, written by Mark S. Ghiorso, Paul D. Asimow, and Marc M. Hirschmann.  Please reference Ghiorso and Sack (1995) and Asimow and Ghiorso (1998) when citing results from MELTS.
• pMELTS C server code is based upon UNIX MELTS 4.0.0, written by Mark S. Ghiorso, Paul D. Asimow, and Marc M. Hirschmann, and with the assistance of Pete Reiners (database development) and Victor Kress (high pressure EOS for the liquid).  Please reference Ghiorso et al. (2002) when citing results from pMELTS.
