CrossTeX is a new bibliography management tool. The project comprises a new bibliographic database format that is much less prone to error compared to other alternatives like BibTex, and a new, more flexible tool for creating the citations that appear at the end of scholarly texts.
CrossTeX was borne out of the author's frustration with inconsistencies and errors in BibTex-formatted scholarly papers.
The main feature of CrossTeX is that it is object-oriented. You can define a "conference" object, and simply refer to it. You can similarly define "location" objects, with a long and short form, and refer to them. You can specify that a conference object in a particular year was held in one location, and none of your paper information need ever repeat this information again. You can spell the name of an author correctly just once, and simply reuse that object instead of having to re-spell it every time.
In contrast, BibTex is based on a relational database, where every reference contains copies of the fields it uses. It is not uncommon for a database file to have the same conference name, author or location repeated numerous times, often with errors and inconsistencies.
CrossTeX is backwards-compatible with BibTex. You can use a BibTex database with CrossTeX, and invoke crosstex where you used to invoke bibtex. It is particularly well-suited for use in Computer Science and Engineering, with support for frequently cited publication formats and an extensive library of published articles at top conferences.
