  • 10º Encontro Português De Computação Gráfica
    Actas do 10º Encontro Português de Computação Gráfica 1 – 3 de Outubro 2001 Lisboa – Portugal Patrocinadores de Honra Patrocinadores Organização 10º Encontro Português de Computação Gráfica 1-3 de Outubro 2001 PREFÁCIO A investigação, o desenvolvimento e o ensino na área da Computação Gráfica constituem, em Portugal, uma realidade positiva e de largas tradições. O Encontro Português de Computação Gráfica (EPCG), realizado no âmbito das actividades do Grupo Português de Computação Gráfica (GPCG), tem permitido reunir regularmente, desde o 1º EPCG realizado também em Lisboa, mas no já longínquo mês de Julho de 1988, todos os que trabalham nesta área abrangente e com inúmeras aplicações. Pela primeira vez no historial destes Encontros, o 10º EPCG foi organizado em ligação estreita com as comunidades do Processamento de Imagem e da Visão por Computador, através da Associação Portuguesa de Reconhecimento de Padrões (APRP), salientando-se, assim, a acrescida colaboração, e a convergência, entre essas duas áreas e a Computação Gráfica. Tal como nos Encontros anteriores, o programa está estruturado ao longo de três dias, sendo desta vez o primeiro dia dedicado a seminários por conferencistas convidados e os dois últimos à apresentação de comunicações e de "posters", decorrendo em simultâneo o Concurso para Jovens Investigadores, uma Exibição Comercial e, pela primeira vez, um Atelier Digital. Como novidade essencialmente dedicada aos jovens, realiza-se ainda em paralelo com o Encontro um torneio de jogos de computador. Em resposta ao apelo às comunicações para este 10º EPCG foram submetidos 38 trabalhos, na sua maioria de grande qualidade, tendo sido seleccionadas pela Comissão de Programa, após um cuidadoso processo de avaliação, apenas 19 comunicações; aos autores de 14 dos restantes trabalhos, considerados suficientemente promissores, foi sugerida a sua reformulação e uma nova submissão como "posters".

  • 41St CUG Conference Final Program Welcome
    MAY 24-28, 1999 • MINNEAPOLIS, MN 41st CUG Conference Final Program Welcome Welcome to the 1999 CUG Conference! is a beautiful time of year here, and enthusiasm runs high as people begin to enjoy the outdoors after a long northern winter. From the bluffs of the mighty Mississippi River in We are excited to welcome everyone to Minneapolis for the the east, to the scenic shores of one of the largest fresh water 1999 CUG Conference. As the original home of Cray lakes in the world (Lake Superior), to the farms and prairies Research, it seems a fitting place to close out the millennium of the west, Minnesota provides a diverse offering for visi- and look ahead to the next. We are indeed at the end of an tors. Whether you like outdoor activities and sports, a quiet era, as the supercomputing paradigm has shifted from the respite in the northern woods, or just some time to see the "big iron" to an HPC world of high-performance commodity sights in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, we processors. hope your stay will be memorable. The CUG Program Committee has planned an exciting week Minnesota is known for friendly but reserved people, who of technical sessions and discussions. Add to that good food, often are masters of understatement. To use the words of a grand night out in the elegant Minnesota History Center, Garrison Keillor, well-known Minnesota humorist and host an evening reception hosted by SGI, a special luncheon for of national public radio's "A Prairie Home Companion," we CUG newcomers, and a chance to meet with your colleagues think this conference will be "not too bad," which, translated in the comfortable setting of the downtown Minneapolis from understated Minnesota parlance, means it will be Marriott City Center Hotel.

Tarolli Interviewed by: Shayne Hodge Recorded: July 29, 2013 Mountain View, California CHM Reference number: X6887.2013 © 2013 Computer History Museum 3dfx Oral History Panel Shayne Hodge: OK. My name is Shayne Hodge. This is July 29, 2013 at the afternoon in the Computer History Museum. We have with us today the founders of 3dfx, a graphics company from the 1990s of considerable influence. From left to right on the camera-- I'll let you guys introduce yourselves. Gary Tarolli: I'm Gary Tarolli. Scott Sellers: I'm Scott Sellers. Ross Smith: Ross Smith. Gordon Campbell: And Gordon Campbell. Hodge: And so why don't each of you take about a minute or two and describe your lives roughly up to the point where you need to say 3dfx to continue describing them. Tarolli: All right. Where do you want us to start? Hodge: Birth. Tarolli: Birth. Oh, born in New York, grew up in rural New York. Had a pretty uneventful childhood, but excelled at math and science. So I went to school for math at RPI [Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute] in Troy, New York. And there is where I met my first computer, a good old IBM mainframe that we were just talking about before [this taping], with punch cards. So I wrote my first computer program there and sort of fell in love with computer. So I became a computer scientist really. So I took all their computer science courses, went on to Caltech for VLSI engineering, which is where I met some people that influenced my career life afterwards.
