Results
Results of this event will be summarized here after it is completed.
Please note
- Everyone should bring a laptop. We will have three or four projectors.
- About half the time will be spent working on projects and the other half in project related discussions.

Logistics
Dates: January 10 & 12, 2007 (There will be no project-week related events scheduled for Thursday, January 11th, the day of the AHM.)
Registration Fee: Registration fee is $215 for this event, and includes registration for the NA-MIC AHM. Separate registration, either for the AHM, or the project event are not available. To register and reserve hotel rooms, please follow this link.
Background and Preparation
We continue to call this event "Project Week" or "Project Half Week", depending on how its duration, rather than by its original name of "Programming Week". Along with programming, a fair amount of algorithm design, and clinical application brainstorming also takes places and the name change reflects the broader scope of the event. What does this means for participants: if you are participating in a NA-MIC project or collaboration by providing algorithmic or clinical input, you are very welcome to attend. As always, participation is entirely voluntary.
Goals
The main goal of this week is to move forward the deliverables of NA-MIC. All NA-MIC participants and their collaborators are welcome.
- Members of all cores are welcome. This event involves programming, algorithm design, and clinical application development/testing.
- The event is open to people outside NA-MIC, subject to availability.
- You do need to be actively working on a NA-MIC related project in order to make this investment worthwhile for everyone.
- 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, and those who can help make it happen.
- This is not an introduction to the components of the NA-MIC Kit.
- Submit any projects that you would like to work on during this week, and what type of help you might need for it.
Preparation for the workshop
- Please make sure that you are on the na-mic-programming-week mailing list
- December 7: Kickoff TCON
- December 14: Create a Wiki page per project (the participants must do this, hopefully jointly)
- December 14: TCON#2 to discuss projects and verify teams
- December: Create a directory for each project on the NAMIC Sandbox (Andy)
- 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)
- 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.)
- 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. (Andy)
- January 4, 2007: TCON#3 last preparation tcon
- By January 9th: Complete the top half of this powerpoint template for each project. Upload and link to the right place.
- 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...
