[PD-dev] pd and threads with pd~ : was Re: i can has svn commit access?

2008-12-02 Thread cyrille henry
hello,

i'm maybe wrong, but it look like the pd~ object that is part of 0.42 test 
release offer a good and generic solution to create thread with pd.

So, i'd like to know it i'm to much optimistic, or if work on thread with pd 
will be obsolet when pd 0.42 will be out.

 You're welcome, but take note, that the MAIN branch of Pd in svn is
 strictly reserved for commits by Miller, so if you want to make
 changes to [soundfiler] using the sourceforge patch tracker is the way
 to go.
 
 Also, I am sure you already know this but there was a threaded
 soundfiler by Tim Blechmann some time back. Might be a good idea to
 check out his code, and also to try and engage Miller before starting
 the work to ask his opinion on what you want to do (that is, if it's
 your goal for the changes to make it back into MillerVanillaPd. Pd has a
 history of people doing lots of great work and fun features that don't
 get accepted, and that's quite frustrating to watch. Best of luck!
 
 Best,
 
 Chris.

i didn't check the sources, but from the description in miller's icmc 
paper, pd~ introduces a pipelined approach, i.e. adding one block of 
latency when audio data is passed from one thread to another.
from my understanding, the pd~ approach is static, so a patch would need 
to be written explicitly for the number of threads ... 

pd~ has different limitations than max5's poly~, but is still far away 
from a general solution ...

hello, Miller? if you're reading: is there a roadmap for this sort of stuff?

well, if you can make an threaded_soudfiler abstraction based on pd~ and 
soundfiler, then it should be ok...

Yeah, I'd like to read that ICMC paper, is sucks that ICMC is so lame  
about publishing their papers.  They are really difficult to get,  
even though I have access to two academic libraries (NYU and Brooklyn  
Polytechnic) and the NYPL, one of the world's largest. So for people  
outside of computer music academia, papers in ICMC are as close to  
good as not published at all.  ICMC should follow the example of  
conferences like NIME (http://nime.org/ ), where all of the papers  
are available online and are freely downloadable.

I agree wholeheartedly.  I'm actually trying to decide right now
whether to publish something at ICMC or at NIME, and this makes the
decision a lot tougher.  (Specifically because my university is
hosting ICMC next year, so it would make more sense for me, but on the
other hand I want the paper made available.)

Fortunately many people are just posting up their papers on their own
websites, maybe Miller could do this.

However, I suggest everyone who this bothers to email the admin for
ICMC 2008, and ask for a copy of the paper:

I figured!

But I think they're referring to this year's ICMC, it looks like your
site lists papers up to 2007.

Specifically I assume this is what is being referred to:

Miller Puckette, Thoughts on Parallel Computing for Music

However I noticed beside this it says panel session, not paper
session, so maybe it was not actually a written document but only an
oral discussion.

Rumor has it there is a paper about the pd~ thread stuff somewhere.
