Graphics Specialist? That's Vague.
|
Well, my official title is Information Resource Consultant Level III.
I think Graphics Specialist is pretty descriptive in comparison.
I became the Graphics specialist for the
Department of Mathematics
at USC in October 1994. I help build applications for members of the faculty
as they work on various research projects. The main projects I've worked
on so far are:
-
g3d - Developed under the
PICS program for use in rendering
three-dimensional grids of groundwater data (contaminant concentration,
flow, etc.) over time. It is general enough for application in other
areas, such as rendering wavelet coefficients for image compression, in
an attempt to find better wavelets for the job.
-
wvlib - a wavelet library for processing
arbitrary tensor-product (rectangular in any number of dimensions) data.
Part of the IMI research effort.
The work I do is done exclusively on SGI workstations (Indigo 2's, O2's, and
Octanes), using X/Motif and
OpenGL
for maximum portability.
Silicon Graphics, Inc. (SGI) has its own
homepage, of course.
