Topics

(1) Memory Management

  • Large Image Handling
    • streaming
    • out of core data management (memory mapped files, etc)
    • level of detail
    • Google Earth 3D
    • caching
  • Decide on smartpointers e.g. C++0x/Boost
    • Afternoon: check Qt vs C++0x/Boost smartpointers
    • Rule: Use Smartpointers of the super-class; if there is no super-class, use the one decided upon in the afternoon...

(2) Migrate some code to the repository (e.g. Qt widgets) and use it in our respective toolkits

Steve: goal to make some progress on consolidating some Qt widgets from our various projects into a repository that we can all contribute to.

(3) DICOM IO layer on top of DCMTK: interpretation of DICOM data

(4) Interoperability of plugins

Steve: Summarize what would it take to make a standard that could handle at least the three following systems:

If we can handle those, then that's probably broad enough to cover many common scenarios.

Jc: PythonQt and the Qt based plugin architecture used in SlicerQt

Sascha, Olivier: Generic service oriented approach to expose modules for multiple platforms.

(5) Generic event mechanism (e.g. event bus, translate events into signals)
