| Thu | 14:15-15:15 | Hands-on: Implement your own thorn (some analysis routine - ideas?), and visualize it, in teams of about 5 people | Roland (proposal: NS tracker that tracks the center of mass of a region with density above threshold not further than X units from the last known position. This can be used to get smooth tracking of multiple NS. Requires use of grid functions, grid scalars, reduction interface.) |
