\section{Introduction}
\OpenXM is a free, or Open Source, infrastructure for mathematical
softwares.
It provides methods and protocols 
to integrate various 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 interface. 
More and more softwares are wrapped with the \OpenXM stackmachine;
they are getting a member of \OpenXM package.
