The goal of the software meetings is to have a once a month (first Tuesday) at room NCSA 1040 get together where we can present software developed and/or used inside NCSA. The goal is to disseminate knowledge across software developers in NCSA and to leverage of ongoing projects. The meetings will be ever other month (odd months) and will usually feature two speakers. Each speaker should have a 10-15 minute presentation followed by some time for questions.
These meetings are open to anyone interested - they are not for any one group, though they are organized by Rob Kooper as part of the Software division.
software@ncsa.illinois.edu will be used for reminders of these meetings. To join this list, send an email to majordomo@ncsa.illinois.edu with content "subscribe software". (See Majordomo and You for more about NCSA mailing lists.)

| 2023-03-07 | The Software Directorate is bringing back the Software Seminar: the place to showcase your work to all of NCSA. Jessica Saw will present the current project, FlightPath. This iPad/mobile app uses mixed reality to diagnose mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). This is a collaboration between OSF Healthcare, UIC, Health Care Engineering Systems Center at UIUC, Department of Computer Science at UIUC and NCSA Visual Analytics Lab. Focusing on the UI/UX interface of the app, feedback will be requested. Note: Data is still being collected to train the ML model, therefore the team is unable to diagnose any levels of TBI yet. | |
