Tubular bells (also known as chimes) are musical instruments in the percussion family. Each bell is a metal, typically brass, tube, 1¼–1½ inches in diameter, tuned by altering its length. Tubular bells are typically hung vertically in chromatic sets of 1½ octaves with a range from C5 to F6. Two_octave sets that extend to F4 do exist, but they are extremely heavy and not commonly used.
Chime can be used at the Protein Data Bank http://www.rcsb.org/pdb/index.html to examine structures stored there, and on a variety of biochemistry web sites for the visualization of macromolecules.

CHIME facilitates the automatic relookup/resend of messages that missed their target, generally due to excessive mobility on the part of said target.
The CHIME browser functions by (1) periodically calling the Render() method of its owned models, so they may render themselves onto the output devices available at the host, and (2) to accept events from local input devices for relay to the browser's internal Reasoning module, where suitable repositioning and relocation actions are triggered.
