> Linux for Your Lab, presented by Edward H. Hill III, PhD
>
> This talk will present various examples demonstrating how Linux
> and other Free
> and/or Open Source projects can be used in academic/research or
> engineering
> laboratory settings. The talk will focus on Linux uses that are
> not common in
> typical office or business settings (eg. the talk is not about
> email/print/file /web servers). Examples will be drawn from:
>
>     * data acquisitiona and porces automation;
>     * data analysis and visualization;
>     * scientific computing and grid-like ("idle worksation");
>     * authoring papers and presentations (examples with LaTeX and BibTeX).
>
> Ed is a post-doctoral researcher with the Environmental Science and
> Engineering Division at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden, CO. His
> interests include:
>
>     * theoretical and experimental aspects of subsurface flow and
> transport,
>     * X-ray and gamma-ray attenuation techniques for experimental
> measurement
> of porous media fluid mechanics,
>     * subsurface NAPL remediation,
>     * computational methods for simulation and analysis of the
> above-mentioned
> processes, and
>     * all manner of Linux, Unix, Free Software, and Open-Source computing.
