+ ! Developer update
+ * Nathan finished actor that reads opendap data, all data in one complex data type
+ ** memory problems with even a moderate opendap dataset
+ ** need to focus on the optimizations now -- matrix optimizations needed (e.g., for 2d array of int, long, double)
+ ** probably 2 new types needed in Kepler
+ *** Grid type
+ *** N-dimensional arrays with optimized storage
+ ** next step to change actor to add dynamic ports based on the type, so that the ports can reflect the structure of the source
+ * Ilkay
+ ** Matlab actor, using the code from Zhang at the workshop
+ ** Still really need Matlab actor to be as robust as the R actor
+ *** Ilkay will write up a list of Matlab actor issues and requirements
+ **** Only supports passing input variables -- need output too
+ **** graphical output needed too
+ **** issue with Matlab being local or remote (command line versus ssh)
+ **** should we support octave? probably a good idea
+ * Derik
+ ** hardware for the terrestrial use case -- setup a few days
+ ** CR Basic code to write to PC will take a bit
+ ** then move on to CR Basic to RBNB -- not sure if there is existing code for this -- need to search
+ ** may be able to use other languages over serial directly
+ *** probably still need to use CR Basic to configure the sensors
At line 7 added 5 lines.
+ ! Workshop debrief
+ * Terrestrial usecases
+ ** on the wiki
+ * Ocean usecases
+ ** will be on the wiki
At line 8 added 1 line.
+ ! Next conference call: Aug 15, 10am pacific time
Removed line 10
