ITK intensive course

November 8-9, 2005
Context
ITK is an open-source software toolkit for performing registration and segmentation. ITK is implemented in C++. ITK is cross-platform, using the CMake build environment to manage the configuration process. In addition, an automated wrapping process generates interfaces between C++ and interpreted programming languages such as Tcl, Java, and Python. This enables developers to create software using a variety of programming languages. ITK's C++ implementation style is referred to as generic programming (i.e., using templated code). Such C++ templating means that the code is highly efficient, reusable, and that many software problems are discovered at compile-time, rather than at run-time during program execution. Because ITK is an open-source project, developers from around the world can use, debug, maintain, and extend the software. ITK uses a model of software development referred to as extreme programming. Extreme programming collapses the usual software creation methodology into a simultaneous and iterative process of design-implement-test-release
Objectives of the course
This intensive course aims both at giving a brief introduction to ITK for new and potential users, as well as in-depth details on advanced ITK programming for ITK developers. Moreover, a special session will be dedicated to the link between ITK and different medical image viewers. The course will include plenary presentation by specialists from Kitware Inc. (http://www.kitware.com) as well as hands-on exercises on real, practical problems in medical imaging.
