PSICAT

Last week Dr. Dobbs Journal ran an article about PSICAT. The article does a good job of describing the internals of PSICAT. It's worth checking out if you're interested in how PSICAT works.

I did an interview with the guys from the JavaPosse podcast. We talked about CHRONOS, ANDRILL, PSICAT, and Antarctica. Last year while I was on the ice, I went to great pains to subvert the ban on podcasts so I could listen to the Posse. While not too heavily focused on PSICAT, the interview turned out well so it might be an interesting listen. You can check it out at the JavaPosse site.

I successfully defended my Master's thesis which is based on PSICAT. I've included the text of the thesis and the slides from my defense.

I attended this years AccessData workshop. It's a really great workshop where they get tool developers, data providers, scientists, and educators together in teams and then work on developing educational activities. There was also a poster and a demo session, so I presented the poster below and did a demo of PSICAT.

I presented a poster about PSICAT at the 2007 Emerging Technologies Conference. The conference was at Iowa State University and it showcased the work that is going on in the Human Computer Interaction program.

The cover story in the latest issue of Enterprise Open Source Magazine has is about PSICAT. The article provides an overview of PSICAT and discusses living and working in Antarctica. I've attached the preprint and the formatted article with the magazine cover. The EOS folks did a great job of making things look nice and professional.

There's a short podcast about PSICAT out at Dr. Dobbs Journal.

An article titled "CHRONOS's PSICAT: a graphical core-logging tool for the 21st century" was published in the February 2006 issue of GeoSpectrum (pages 33-34).
