Research
IPlot
Most recently, Gene designed and wrote a new visualization package for
SUPREM OO7. The program,
IPlot
IPlot reads "HDF Vset Files"
and can run independently or as a slave process to SUPREM OO7.
Forest
Gene's past research efforts for TCAD have been in the areas of Finite Grid
Refinement and Visualization. Gene integrated the Forest
Grid/Geometry Server developed by Zakir Sahul into SUPREM IV GS.
Below is a list of Gene's publications in this area:
