These project ideas involve computer systems projects to support concatenative systems.
CoreSample is an idea for an operating systems API (like CoreAudio and CoreMIDI on the Mac) for streaming real-time audio from mass storage devices (disks, Flash memory, etc). It would simplify the development of concatenative systems, as it would become unnecessary for an audio developer to learn the fine points of disk I/O. A longer description will be placed here soon; ask the instructors for more information if you are interested in the project idea.
