Abstract: |
The Scientific Computing and Imaging Institute at the University of Utah has created the new Center for Integrative Biomedical Computing (CIBC) whose mission is to produce high performance image analysis, simulation, and visualization software in support of biomedical research. Software at the CIBC is developed in close collaboration with scientists to satisfy real needs within the community. We use an agile software process that is fully open source and integrates the best of the open-source tools for biomedical image analysis with our own expertise in image processing, scientific visualization, and modeling. This paper describes some of the research collaborations driving our work, our software development process, and some initial results at the Center. |
