LONG BEACH, Calif. — July 28, 2009 — Design Science today announced the release of MathFlow Components and SDK, for editing, display, and accessibility of mathematical notation for websites, applications and services. MathFlow Components and SDK replace the company's WebEQ product and are an addition to its MathFlow product line that includes MathFlow for Arbortext and XMetaL. The technology at the heart of MathFlow is MathML, the XML standard for representing mathematical notation.

MathFlow is widely used in publishing, elearning, assessment, aerospace, defense, education, government, science and engineering, as well as enterprise solutions and commercial products. An SDK is available for programmers and systems integrators to develop custom solutions that require advanced equation editing, display, accessibility features and other math functionality.

"Over the past decade our technical staff have been working with customers building all kinds of custom solutions and OEM integrations. We've taken all that knowledge and feedback and turned it into a toolbox of flexible and easy-to-use components." said Dr. Robert Miner, Design Science's VP of Research & Development. "This is really just the start. We'll be rolling out other MathML-based components soon to address the needs of ebook publishing."

Licensing and pricing plans have been set for enterprise, education and commercial OEM use. More information is available on Design Science's website, www.dessci.com.
