[IGSTK-Developers] Presentation at SDMS

[Kevin Gary]

Hello everyone,

Kevin Cleary asked me to post some of my notes from the IGSTK 
presentation at the SDMS (Software and Systems for Medical Devices and 
Services) workshop this past Monday, http://oris.csie.ntu.edu.tw/SMDS07. 
My notes are below. The presentation itself I can send to anyone 
interested or post to the Wiki (I don't see an area for our pubs on the 
Wiki, and the www.igstk.org docs/pubs page is out of date?). The paper 
is attached as the file is small compared to the prez.

Notes:
A worthwhile day; there were a couple relevant talks on safety in 
medical devices, one by Paul Jones at the FDA that I thought was 
particularly enlightening. Our presentation was well-received I think, 
there was some good discussion on open source and Agile development in 
this context.

I had lunch with Insup Lee and a couple of the other workshop 
organizers; they agree that these issues will continue to gain mindshare 
over time. There was also a program manager (Kristin Tolle) from 
Microsoft External Research in Biomedical Computing that gave a last 
minute presentation, and I had a chance to chat with her after. She was 
very enthusiastic about our presentation and open source. Might want to 
check in on her RFP's from time to time.

Cheers,
K2
