| # 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
| |
|
| |
|
| == Brad == | | ---- |
| # make research group more productive -- products are
| | === Brad === |
| ## 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.)
