Dan is a computer graphics consultant...
At the beginning of January 1997, I joined Hewlett-Packard's Technical
Consulting Lab as a 3D graphics specialist working with HP's 9000 Series 700
workstations (C-class, B-class and J-class) which run HP-UX, and more recently with HP's
Visualize Personal Workstations running NT. My job really involves
working with companies who develop software that they sell on several
manufacturer's platforms; I go along and try to ensure that the version
they produce for HP-UX runs better than their other versions. Or at
least, that's the theory.
Right now, I'm closely involved with HP Visualize Center, a product
which represents HP's first foray into the large-screen review-wall market
place. Plus, I'm looking into other virtual reality technologies that might
be applicable to our market strategy.
I specialise in the following products:
Xwindows
OSF/Motif
OpenGL (a 3D graphics API)
PEXlib (another one)
PHIGS (and another)
Starbase (and yet another)
So you see, I'm only really interested in stuff that's pretty on the
screen... I haven't a clue about networks and disk arrays an' stuff!
