Dr. Miele is an alumnus of the University of California at Berkeley where he received his BA in Physics and his Ph.D. in Psychoacoustics. He is currently a Research Associate at The Smith-Kettlewell Eye Research Institute’s Rehabilitation Engineering Research Center where he is conducting research in the areas of tactile maps and auditory displays. In the early 1990’s, Dr. Miele was on the development team for Berkeley Systems’ outSPOKEN – the first screen reader that provided a significant level of accessibility for a GUI environment – and has consulted extensively within the access technology industry on a range of issues related to non-visual user interfaces.
ABSTRACT
The goal of Smith-Kettlewell's Tactile Map Automated Production (TMAP) Project is to develop a web-based software tool for rapid production of highly specific, tactile street maps of any location in the USA. Prior to this time, tactile maps have been difficult and expensive to obtain or produce. Local street maps for any specific town or city have been almost impossible to obtain in an accessible format. TMAP brings together existing geographical data sources with currently available computer-controlled embossing and engraving technologies to yield a revolutionary tool which will significantly impact education, orientation, and mobility of blind and visually impaired travelers. The presentation will include a technical description of the hardware and software involved, as well as a discussion of the project’s future.

Ron Bodkin is the leader of the Glassbox project, and spearheads its efforts to revolutionize enterprise troubleshooting by simplifying it and bringing it into the open source technology stack. Dave Pickering leads engineering for Glassbox, and in a prior life ran Call Center development for Oracle.

ABSTRACT
Glassbox is an open source troubleshooting and monitoring agent for Java apps that diagnoses common problems automatically.
Drop the Glassbox web application into your server and Glassbox's aspect-oriented programming will discover your existing apps and pinpoint errors and performance issues in plain English. Using AspectJ, Glassbox can provide low overhead effective monitoring without needing to "bake in" instrumentation up front--no code changes or recompilation is needed. Glassbox includes an analysis layer, an Ajax web-client and an automated installer. It is open source and modular, so contributors can add monitors for more problems or additional analysis as desired for their own projects.
Glassbox's goal is to automate the daily grunt work of troubleshooting common problems, and free the expert to get back to solving the core technical problems. This talk will illustrate how Glassbox 2.0 identifies problems, how to integrate it into an existing monitoring environment, and how it can be extended to better analyze custom applications without code changes.

ABSTRACT
In this talk, we present a fast approach to automated generation of textured 3D city models with both high details at ground level, and complete coverage for birds-eye view. The goal is photorealistic rendering for walk throughs, drive through and fly throughs. A close-range facade model is acquired at the ground level by driving a vehicle equipped with laser scanners and a digital camera under normal traffic conditions on public roads in a continuous, rather than a stop-and-go fashion, resulting in extremeley fast data acquisition times; a far-range Digital Surface Model (DSM), containing complementary roof and terrain shape, is created from airborne laser scans, then triangulated, and finally texture-mapped with aerial imagery. The facade models are first registered with respect to the DSM using Monte-Carlo-Localization, and then merged with the DSM by removing redundant parts and filling gaps. The continuous mode scanning, combined with a no human in the loop approach, has enabled us to generated detailed models of downtown Berkeley facades with 25 minutes of driving under normal traffic conditions and 4 hours of automated processing on a single CPU personal computer. We will show the resulting downtown Berkeley models using both commercial vrml viewers, as well as inserted in Google Earth.
