Tim Huckaby CEO, InterKnowlogy Microsoft RD & MVP Solving the Difficult Problems of Healthcare and Life Sciences with the Latest Generation of Microsoft Technologies

Length: 1:15 presentation & discussion Technologies: Silverlight, Surface, WPF, XAML, SharePoint 2007, Performance Point, VSTO, Windows 7 touch Audience: BDMs with broad appeal for TDMs (Developers, Application Architects, Designers) Level: (broad appeal) Presentation abstract: This presentation will be heavily demo focused to accentuate how the power of the Microsoft Stack is used to solve some of the more difficult problems in Healthcare and Life Sciences. Specifically, real applications, built for real customers in the health care and life sciences industries will be demonstrated and examined from “outside in” perspective showing how leveraging the Microsoft platform, plumbing and tools were leveraged to build custom applications quickly and efficiently. Highlighted applications will include and not be limited to those leveraging the following Microsoft Technologies: Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) can be used to visualize data. WPF is the next-generation presentation sub-system for Windows. It provides.NET developers and designers with a unified programming model for building rich Windows smart client user experiences that incorporate UI, media, and documents. Microsoft® Silverlight™ is a cross-browser, cross-platform, and cross-device plug-in for delivering the next generation of media experiences and rich interactive applications for the Web. SharePoint 2007, a web based platform for collaboration, workflow, content management and document management. Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO), a.NET technology facilitating the construction of custom applications that manifest themselves in Office 2007 applications and documents. Microsoft Surface is a multi-touch product from Microsoft which is developed as a software and hardware combination technology that allows a user, or multiple users, to manipulate digital content by the use of natural motions, hand gestures, or physical objects. Windows 7 Touch - Windows 7 offers more choice in how users interact with their PCs, such as through MultiTouch gestures. With WPF support for Windows 7 MultiTouch.NET programmers have a revolutionary new way to build interactive user experiences.

The Peter Kuhn Lab at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) Research Focus –Early detection and therapy management of cancer patients –Modulation of protein interactions for therapeutic intervention Projects –Cancer bioengineering partnership –Structural Proteomics of SARS

Laboratory Environment –Research teams work in a distributed environment –Manual, paper notebooks and prone to error –Have stove pipe systems which capture data –Status management requires contacting the researcher directly Collaboration Issues –Data Recorded on scraps of paper then re-written in lab notebooks –Pasting gel/chromatogram pictures in notebooks –Too many crystal image files to keep track of & too big –Manually linking patient information experimental results –No way to electronically search for images The Problem

The Solution: C-ME WPF Smart Client for SharePoint 2007 –Collaborative Client –2D & 3D views at a molecular level –Leverage the collaborate environment of SharePoint 2007 –Provide data in the context of the project not in the context of it’s storage Allow users to drag and drop data into the context of the project –Smart client then handles the display & annotations of the underlying storage –Allow user’s to add ad-hoc information

What the Heck is WPF? …and why do we need it? It’s.NET! –All the goodness of Developer Productivity Goal: Overcome the limits of GDI+ & USER with the productivity of.NET Windows Forms –The GDI & USER subsystems were introduced in Windows 1.0 in 1985 –OpenGL – Early 90s –DirectX – 1995 Built on Top of Direct 3D –Converted to 3D triangles, textures and other Direct3D objects & then rendered by hardware –Benefits of hardware acceleration & perf due to work being off-loaded to GPUs (unlike GDI based systems); Ensures the maximum benefit of new hardware and drivers; Software rendering pipeline as fallback Declarative programming –Bringing designers directly into application development Ease of deployment –Allowing administrators to deploy and manage applications securely

What the heck is XAML? Separates the front-end from the back-end Simple declarative programming language suitable for constructing and initializing.NET Objects Usually the most concise way to represent user interfaces (or other hierarchies of objects) Doesn’t need a compiler to render The language that almost all WPF related tools emit

Sample XAML Runs in a WPF Application: Runs in the Browser :

Audience Participation Time 1.Does WPF enable me to do something I couldn’t have done before? –No. Unless you factor in time & money… –And would like to do more with less… 2.Is DirectX dead? –No. It is more applicable to advanced 3D developers writing hard-core “twitch” games. 3.Are Winforms dead? –No. …but it will not be advanced; the last version was 2.0 in.NET –WPF / Winforms Integration is elegant & simple –Windows 98 Supports WinForms – we need a rich client solution for legacy 4.Does WPF run better on Vista & Win 7 than on XP? –Yes. –3D objects only get anti-aliasing on Windows Vista and later. –Non-rectangular windows only get hardware acceleration on Vista and later. –Vista & Windows 7 have driver models that help with resource contention. 5.Does Silverlight trump all this other WPF & Surface Stuff? –One would think so with all the marketing dollars and buzz that are being thrown at it…. –But, in Reality the answer is “No” and it makes solution architecture more important than ever. –Ultimately these 3 worlds (and more) will collide and where and how your app is manifested will not matter
