Even if \textbf{Hilbert~II} is no proof finder\index{proof finder} in the strong sense it tries to support common mathematical proof techniques.\footnote{These meta rules\index{meta rule} could always be replaced by a sequence of simple basic rule applications.} And one simple step in an mathematical proof could mean hard work for a theorem prover\index{theorem prover}.

Although English is the project language and many mathematicians can read English texts about their special subject \textbf{Hilbert~II} supports different text languages. \par The data of \textbf{Hilbert~II} can be completely presented in XML\index{XML} documents. The current XML schema specification could be found here: \url{http://www.qedeq.org/0_01_06/qedeq.xsd}. \par The data access works with the common internet protocols \textbf{http} and \textbf{ftp}. This defines platform independence that enables different software implementations. The reference software is written in Java and should run on most operating systems. \par As time goes by \textbf{Hilbert~II} should expand. This includes the format of data presentations. The old format must be supported further on. describes the internal implementation of the program. It talks about data structures, choice of programming languages and tools, algorithms, etc. +++ Software interfaces \\ Development environment \\ Operating system \\ Application overview \\ \par \par Third party tools and libraries
