Education applications include "classic guided tour" and more interestingly shared simulations
  • mechanics of springs, planets
  • Explore new DoD Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative based on distributed objects
Delivering "consulting" version to DoD (CEWES)
  • Shared editor/source code viewers, debugger, visualization
  • (use SciVis 40,000 lines of Java) etc.
Need to make Tango even more robust/"user error proof"
More sophisticated multi-room customizable version under development
