Nov. 2002 To-dos:
1. Learning how to use configure and install software on Linux
2. λRAM - Generic in STK
3. Further studying: DSM, VTK Interaction, Data Mining, OO Programming
4. Interaction in VTK: vtkInteractorStyle.AddObserver();
5. Web Services: SOAP

- Use cases for TeraVIZ GUI
TeraOverview: overview, pick, animation, and etc.
TeraEarthView: animation, pick
TeraParaCoord: brush, value setting, switch axis
TeraScatterPlot: cube selecting

GNU's AutoConf, AutoMake and LibTool
- Those files are generated:
- Makefile and those under sub-directories
- C header file. It's recommend to put the #define and const in a config.h header
- config.status
- config.cache
- config.log
How does it work?

- stkObject, stkObjectFactory
- stkData, stkMining, stkInteraction
- stkParallel

Abstract factory: stkObject, stkObjectFactory
Factory method: virtual function for inherited classes Strategy: create algorithm for different data, stkMining

- COMMAND form: COMMAND(args ...)
- project name: PROJECT
- executable: ADD_EXECUTABLE(Exe *.c)
- rename for a group, like macro: SET
- comment: #
- Other: SUBDIRS, ADD_LIBRARY, AUX_SOURCE_DIRECTORY, INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES, LINK_DIRECTORIES, LINK_LIBRARIES, TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES, FIND_FILE
- Some special commands: FLTK_WRAP_UI ...

- Intention: Define a one-to-many dependency between objects so that when
one object changes state, all its dependents are notified and updated automatically.- Implementation in GridRAM: Add a list of observers, representing the shared memory controllers into GridRAM controller.
Using Absctract Factory to create a suit of tool kit for Visual Data Mining.
xScope comes form teraScope, teleScope, microScope and etc., which are to observe the real world, mining the data and gaining insight into information.
STK is not a visualization tool kit, GUI tool kit. It's for data mining with networking and super-computing facilities.
The basic objects are classified into 4 categories: stkData, stkMining,
Nov. 07, Thursday
virtual functions in RenderWindow: virtual TYPE APIFunction(Parameters) {};
Object Factory: VTK Object Library
Creation Patterns: Abstract factory, Builder, Factory method, Singleton.
Which pattern fit GridRAM? Why?

Reference for Second Chance.
Snapshot for TeraViz = To snapshot Linux screen or window:
1) GIMP -> File -> Acquire -> Screen Shot
2) xv
3) import
4) xwd
System installation
Huge data file
Bugs in DataSetting -> GettingData: update of m_vsData needed.
Generic: Object-Oriented Programming.
Portable: System over MPI specification.
Comparison with other Distributed Shared Memory.
