Project Suggestion: UVA
Title: UVA (3D visualization)
and Interoperability with OAI
- Number of people: 2
- Goal: To install UVA at VT, and make it OAI compliant.
- Contact information: The key person regading UVA is
Carlos Proal (carlos@mail.udlap.mx), who works with
Alfredo Sanchez (alfredo@mail.udlap.mx).
