4. Technical Presentation

Craig Kaplan	Title : The Tactile libraries: teaching a dead horse new tricks Abstract: Twenty years ago, as part of my PhD research, I wrote a library called Tactile to manipulate and draw tilings of the plane. Last year I (finally) created a public, open-source version of the library. Unlike the original version, the new library is simple, fast, and lightweight. I will discuss the structure of the new library and some of the tricks I played to create it.
