[[Category:VRL]]
* Andy
Run flowviseval and complete IEEE Vis submission before Nov 1.  
Co-author NIH grant on new biology research tools
[probably] Spend some time working with Huffman and Bradley and others planning improvements to $G
Brain project


Work with David to identify candidates for new research projects
== Current Schedule ==
Meetings are on Wednesdays.  The authoritative list is in dhl's calendar.


== Current Plans and Goals (Spring '19) ==


* Brad
=== [[User:David Laidlaw|David]] ===
make research group more productive -- products are
knowledge created
knowledge disseminated
publications published
publications downloaded and cited
code created to make publications
code used by close collaborators
code downloaded (perhaps by and used by outsiders
group overhead reduced
knowledge created, disseminated, made impactful
have work be focused on specific funded grants
work independently
provide sw engineering help and support to individuals in the group
A+: get wrist distance-map tools usable by Trey's group, Evan in particular
registration code broken (manifolds issue)
ligament length code broken (probably manifolds again)
get manifolds into the fold; work from Cindy's source control?
A: understand why Evan had to copy code rather that using our source within source control
A: help direct Sidra and Wudan to improve visweb
define some google analytics goals and track our performance on them (high time on page, low exit rate, visit download pages, visit other target pages)
update site to improve those metrics, e.g., images not getting well indexed by google because of link structure
review Daniel Acevedo's web e-mail feedback for ideas
focus on brain or wrist to preserve allocability, but make globally useful
better availability of talks and videos that we make
many ppt's already around -- could be videos with a narration
a number of full videos already around, some on web, but not easily found
streaming video server?
put things on utube or other distribution sites?
create a plan to make available brain diffusion imaging data (perhaps coupling to an existing NIH-funded site)
be general enough to also support wrist data, gene data, proteomics data, etc.
is there any kind of "push" technology for sending papers to lists or individuals (spam...)
A: shift to more principled software development
do so incrementally to preserve existing knowledge of users and existing code
bug tracking system?
determine some principles for sw
main shared $G is read only
explicit writable checkouts by default instead of implicit
all sw components have tests
nagging scripts
code checked out too long
missing tests
failing tests
regular tests of outside infrastructure (net flakiness, disks filling up, etc.)
address missing tests, etc
better solution for linux compiler versions
don't break windows and other platforms
get off g++/gcc 2.95
have some better mechanism for transitioning to future compiler versions
better documentation setup and documentation
for sw development
guidelines for quick prototyping
guidelines for interfaces for distributable algorithms (e.g., segmentation, ITK?)
goals for full applications that will be shared
for paper production
for running computational experiments (tool development, prototyping, testing)
for production-oriented data-driven work (tool production use, e.g., wrist data, brain data)
for hardware resources (wheatstone, cave, etc.)
