The CPD-maintained IDIS Reference Manual was originally published in April, 1999. CPD updates chapters as needed to stay current with the most recent release of IDIS.

If you believe that the contents of any chapter are out of date or innacurate, please report this to the TAU. The TAU also welcomes any questions about the Reference Manual.
