THESIS
		Process Control System for a High Temperature Workstation 
		performing the Selective Laser Sintering process.

PUBLICATIONS
		Software Testbed for Selective Laser Sintering, presented at the
		Solid Freeform Fabrication Symposium, Austin, Texas, Aug. 1991.

		Design of a High Temperature Workstation for the Selective Laser
		Sintering Process, presented at the Solid Freeform Fabrication
		Symposium, Austin, Texas, Aug. 1991.

		Process Control System for a High Temperature Workstation
		performing the Selective Laser Sintering Process, presented at
		the Solid Freeform Fabrication Symposium, Austin, Texas, 
		Aug.1992.

		Fabricating macroscopic solid models of microscopic data by
		Selective Laser Sintering, to appear in the Journal of Microscopy.

PROJECTS	
		Implemented a three dimensional wireframe renderer that draws 3D
		polygonal objects as wire frame images using the Macintosh 
		Toolbox and the GRAFIC package developed at Purdue University.

		Implemented a three dimensional Z-buffer surface renderer that 
		renders 3D Bezier surface patches into shaded images based on 
		interactively editable imaging data such as light position, 
		viewing position and image viewport resolution. This work was 
		done using the Macintosh Toolbox and the GRAFIC package.

		Demonstrated the first ever 3D-FAX using the Selective Laser 
		Sintering process (Transferring 3-D geometry data over a 
		telephone line and manufacturing parts directly using this data
		in real time). This work was done in collaboration with 
		Scientific Measurement Systems Inc. in Aug. 1991 during the Third 
		Solid Freeform Fabrication Symposium held at Austin, Texas.

		Used digitised data from a laser scanner to produce models of 
		prosthetic sockets for artificial limbs using the Selective Laser 
		Sintering Process.This work was done in collaboration with the 
		Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, The University of Texas
		Health Science Center, San Antonio, Texas.

		Successfully produced scale models of microscopic Pollen Grains 
		in the Selective Laser Sintering Process using bitmaps from a 
		confocal laser scanning microscope. This work was done in 
		collaboration with the Vision group of the Department of
		Electrical Engineering, The University of Texas at Austin.
