“A Solution Based H1 Norm Triangular Mesh Quality Indicator,” In Grid Generation and Adaptive Algorithms, Edited by Marshal W. Bern, Joseph E. Flaherty, Mitchell Luskin, Springer, pp. 77-88. 1999.
The issue of mesh quality measures for triangular (and tetrahedral) meshes is considered. A new mesh quality measure is based both on geometrical and solution information and is derived by considering the error in the H 1 norm when linear triangular elements are used to approximate a quadratic function. The new measure is then compared with the recent mesh quality measure based on the L 2 norm. Simple examples are used to show that the choice of norm is critical in deciding what is a good triangulation

“NIH Biomedical Information Science and Technology Initiative (BISTI),” Note: Prepared by the Working Group on Biomedical Computing Advisory Committee to the Director, National Institutes of Health, July, 1999.
The biomedical community is increasingly taking advantage of the power of computing, both to manage and analyze data, and to model biological processes. The working group should investigate the needs of NIH-supported investigators for computing resources, including hardware, software, networking, algorithms, and training. It should take into account efforts to create a national information infrastructure, and look at working with other agencies (particularly NSF and DOE) to ensure that the research needs of the NIH-funded community are met.
It should also investigate the impediments biologists face in utilizing high-end computing, such as a paucity of researchers with cross-disciplinary skills. The panel should consider both today's unmet needs and the growing requirements over the next five years (a reasonable horizon for extrapolating the advances in the rapidly changing fields of computing and computational biology).
The result of deliberations should be a report to the NIH Director, which will be presented to the Advisory Committee to the Director. The report should include recommendations for NIH actions to support the growing needs of NIH-funded investigators for biomedical computing.
