Fall 2008 Mid-Semester Contributions

I have worked this semester to create a flier to recruit someone to work with LabVIEW, submitted blurbs for the same recruitment to the Sundial and SWEmail, created a technical brochure, submitted an abstract for the ESW conference, wrote a grant proposal, helped organize presentations for freshmen engineering 1050 classes, helped a middle school student find the best water treatment process for his future city, wrote up wiki minutes after weekly meetings, and worked with my team to create the submission for the google 10 to the 100 competition. I have also worked to improve wiki organization for the outreach pages. Once I have the pages as I would like to keep them I will move the attachments around, at which time I will also link to the media I have created.

Final Report May 10, 2008

To start off the semester I have laid out the structure for the Automated Design Program. I did this by indicating important programs, subprograms, inputs and outputs, and the means by which each program is connected as sort of a starting point for creating code. Since then many of these have changed, and I suspect more will be revised as we create more of the code and figure out what is most efficient.

Early on it became apparent that a better way to manage our files was needed. I set up a data repository on SourceForge using SubVersion. To communicate with the repository another program is needed. I chose TortoiseSVN and had it installed on most of the lab computers.

In the midst of the semester I went to the Ithaca Youth Bureau to teach kids about water treatment.

By the end of the semester I had worked to integrate the design variables between hydraulic design, unit processes, and autocad with labview.
