Agenda

Specify what is needed by TR to support the first publication from 1000 plant transcriptome project

1. Given what we have in the first iteration of the TR incubator project:
   1.  what can be reused
   2.  what can be extended
   3.  What are we missing?
2. Minimal Visualizations required?
   1. Graphics?
   2. Trees: fine-grained vs. coarse grained (ATV style or Fat tree)
   3. Alternatives?
      1.  tables?
      2. others?
3. Minimal interactions required?
   1.  sub-clade selection
   2.  zooming
   3. determining duplications versus linage divergence
4. Computational support:
   1. HPC and massively parallelizing the processes of TR

Naim has initiated collecting some of the requirements and produced the attached documents:

• TreeView_TR.xls is a list of actions that are generally available in tree visualizers (please note that the list has 4 worksheets: Elements, Basic Actions, Metadata, Analyses). This list can be used as a starting point to identify visualization priorities and specific needs. You can start reviewing it and if you send it to Naim (or attach it to the wiki page) before the meeting he can summarize the different opinions.

• TR_VizRequirements.doc are notes that Naim has collected from conversations with Jim and Todd [and I apologize if I misrepresented something --Naim] regarding what visualization aspects are critical for TR.
