*programming using the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]],
 
−
*algorithm design,

*use of NA-MIC technology for biomedical research
 
−
This event has become one of the major joint activities in the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]] calendar. The project week is co-sponsored by [http://nac.spl.harvard.edu NAC] and [http://www.ncigt.org NCIGT]. It is held in the summer at MIT (typically the last week of June), and in Salt Lake City in the winter (typically the second week of January). 
 
−
The main goal of these events if to move forward the deliverables of NA-MIC. NA-MIC participants and their collaborators are welcome to attend.

−
* NA-MIC Members: Participation in this event is voluntary -- if you don't think this will help you move forward in your work, there is no obligation to attend.
 
−
* Ideal candidates are those who want to contribute to the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]], and those who can help make it happen.
 
−
* This is not an introduction to the components of the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]].
 
−
* NA-MIC Core 1 (Algorithms) - bring your algorithms and code to work on in the company of Core 2 engineers and Core 3 scientists.
 
−
* NA-MIC Core 2 (Engineering) - bring your code for infrastructure and applications to extend the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]] capabiliities, integrate Core 1 algorithms, and refine worflows for Core 3.
 
−
* NA-MIC Core 3 (DBP) - bring your data to work on with the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC Kit]] and get assistance and provide feedback to Core 1 scientists and Core 2 engineers.
 
−
* External Collaborators - if you are working on a project that uses the [[NA-MIC-Kit|NA-MIC kit]], and want to participate to get help from NA-MIC Engineering, please send an email to Tina Kapur (tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu).  Please note that the event is open to people outside NA-MIC, subject to availability.
 
−
* Everyone should '''bring a laptop'''. We will have four projectors.
 
−
* About half the time will be spent working on projects and the other half in project related discussions.
 
−
* You '''do''' need to be actively working on a NA-MIC related project in order to make this investment worthwhile for everyone.

Agenda

Agenda for AHM 2008 and Project Week

Preparation

  1. Please make sure that you are on the na-mic-programming-week mailing list
  2. November 29, 2007: Kickoff TCON#1 (w/ NA-MIC Engeering Core only) to discuss Projects and Assign/Verify Teams
  3. December 6, 2007: TCON#2 with all participants to Assign/Verify Teams
  4. January 3, 2008: TCON#3 to discuss outstanding projects and teams
  5. December 6, 2007: Create a Wiki page per project (the participants must do this, hopefully jointly)
  6. January 3, 2008: Create a directory for each project on the NAMIC Sandbox (Zack)
    1. Ask Zack for a Sandbox account
    2. Commit on each sandbox directory the code examples/snippets that represent our first guesses of appropriate methods. (Luis and Steve will help with this, as needed)
    3. Gather test images in any of the Data sharing resources we have (e.g. the BIRN). These ones don't have to be many. At least three different cases, so we can get an idea of the modality-specific characteristics of these images. Put the IDs of these data sets on the wiki page. (the participants must do this.)
    4. Setup nightly tests on a separate Dashboard, where we will run the methods that we are experimenting with. The test should post result images and computation time. (Zack)
  7. By 3pm ET on Jan 3, 2008: Complete a templated wiki page for your project. Please do not edit the template page itself, but create a new page for your project and cut-and-paste the text from this template page. If you have questions, please send an email to tkapur at bwh.harvard.edu.
  8. Please note that by the time we get to the project event, we should be trying to close off a project milestone rather than starting to work on one...
