X-ray Detector Software for processing single-crystal monochromatic diffraction data recorded by the rotation method.

XDS can process data images from CCD-, imaging-plate, and multiwire-detectors in a variety of formats. Detector specific Input file templates greatly simplify the use of XDS; they are provided as part of the documentation.

XDS runs under Unix or Linux on a single server or a grid of up to 99 machines of the same type managed by the MOSIX system. XDS is able to execute in the same time up to 32 processors at each node that share the same address space, by using OpenMP.
