\begin{abstract}
\OpenXM is a free, or Open Source, infrastructure for mathematical
softwares.
It provides methods and protocols 
for interactive distributed computation and
to integrate mathematical softwares.
\OpenXM package is a set of softwares that supports \OpenXM protocols.
It is currently a collection of softwares
{\tt Risa/Asir} \cite{asir}, {\tt Kan/sm1} \cite{kan}, {\tt PHC} pack \cite{phc}, {\tt GNUPLOT},
{\tt Mathematica} interface, and
{\tt OpenMath}/XML \cite{OpenMath} interpreter.
These are wrapped with the \OpenXM stackmachine
to connect each other.
{\it Availability}: The OpenXM package is obtainable at \cite{openxm-web}
from January 24, 2000.
