I'm going to make no assumptions about you or your purpose for being here. Read what you need or want; you can always come back.
Contents
Statement
- HIP focuses on bringing hardware and software together
- HIP is merged with Green Science and so our projects can include subjects such as the use, representation, and creation of energy.
- There are software and hardware opportunities.
Workspaces
- Dennis roof
- Noyes basement
- Green Zone
Keys
- Dennis front entrance, code ???
- Dennis back entrance, code CAX
- Dennis roof, code CAB 6
- Noyse basement, code CAB 13
Projects
Check HIP for up-to-date project listings.
This is a list of present/past projects that we've worked on.
It's intended to give you a taste of what we do.
- solar array
- wind generator
- energy monitoring of buildings
- normalization of resulting data
- kiosks that display energy information
- earthquake sensors
- time server
- construction cam
Communication
Group
- we use a listserv, email hip@cs.earlham.edu to email everyone
- generally it's good to notify the group about significant progress
- via email or in meetings
- phone numbers / emails are good things to have
- google services such as docs, spreadsheets, etc are useful development tools
- it's useful to know people's gmail accounts
Meetings
- Friday in the Green Zone for lunch (12-1pm)
- general discussion about current and future projects
- bring-your-own-lunch style
- Sunday on the roof (1-3pm)
- working together in the same space
Documentation
Documentation is an important part of HIP because different people from different times will need to know about the work you did. Generally this wiki is where you want to do that, but in-line code documentation is important too.
- document projects on this wiki
- document your work, process, or experience on this wiki
- other people benefit from this kind of documentation
Wiki Basics
- use
- if a page doesn't exist, search for it and the wiki will let you create that page
- learning
- style
