AMELIA's development will proceed in three phases:
- Phase I comprises a basic application, capable of analysing offline event data. This phase is complete.
- Phase II is an upgrade over phase I where multimedia capabilities and online management of real data is added.
- Phase III "WebAmelia" will be a light version of the stand-alone aplication, designed to run online within a browser window.
We are currently close to a beta release of Phase I. Binaries will be made available soon.
