From page 81...
... A team of about a dozen combustion-chemistry experts collected extensive libraries of experimental and kinetic modeling papers and models of natural gas combustion. This team met several times a year, exchanged recommendations and opinions about which experiments were most reliable, carried out theoretical studies of important reactions and chemical species, and developed a fully detailed kinetic model -- one that has been used for the past 20 years by researchers around the world.
From page 82...
... For more than 10 years, a large fraction of the combustion community used one or the other or both of these research tools in their daily efforts, and the community prospered and made significant advances in all types of combustion research, experimental and theoretical, as well as in computer modeling. These were two essential parts of an effective combustion cyberinfrastructure, and they form a template for a possible new cyberin frastructure based on more modern software tools and chemistry models for practical petroleum-based fuels and biofuels for future combustion systems.
