+ AIDA (Abstract Interfaces for Data Analysis) is an acronym of the AIDA project (http://aida.freehep.org/), which helps to define abstract  interfaces for common physics analysis objects, such as histograms, ntuples, fitters, IO etc.. The adoption of these interfaces makes it easier for physicists to use different tools without having to learn new interfaces or change all of their code. Additional benefits will be interoperability of AIDA compliant applications (for example by making it possible for applications to exchange analysis objects via XML). in ILC analysis framework, RAIDA, which is ROOT implementation of AIDA is used to create and fill n-tuple or histograms using standard ROOT objects with AIDA. All ROOT objects created with AIDA are stored in a ROOT file.
