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 compile to render• The language that almost all WPF related
tools emit

WPF – how does it work?
• 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

Why WPF?
• The GDI & USER subsystems were introduced in Windows 1.0 in 1985
• OpenGL – Early 90s
• DirectX – 1995
• Goal: Overcome the limits of GDI+ & USER with the productivity of Windows Forms
![Page 9: Building Data Visualization Applications with WPF Tim Huckaby InterKnowlogy, CEO Microsoft RD & MVP VPF303](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649f575503460f94c7be23/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
WPF Vision
• Unified approach to UI, Documents, and Media
● Integration as part of development and experience
• Integrated, vector-based composition engine
● Utilizing the power of the PC throughout the graphics stack
• Declarative programming● Bringing designers directly into
application development
• Ease of deployment● Allowing administrators to deploy
and manage applications securely

WPF FAQ
1. Does WPF enable me to do something I couldn’t have done before?
● No. Unless you factor in time & money…
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 2005.● WPF / Winforms Bastardization● Windows 98 Supports WinForms
4. Does WPF run better on Vista than on XP?● Yes.● 3D objects only get anti-aliasing on Windows Vista or Later● Non-rectangular windows only get hardware acceleration on Vista. ● Vista has a driver model that helps with resource contention

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

The Problem
• 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
![Page 15: Building Data Visualization Applications with WPF Tim Huckaby InterKnowlogy, CEO Microsoft RD & MVP VPF303](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081506/56649f575503460f94c7be23/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
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
