State of the Art in Computer Graphics Aspects of Visualization This
is the fourth volume derived from a State of . . . the Art in
Computer Graphics Summer Institute. It represents a snapshot of a
number of topics in computer graphics, topics which include
visualization of scientific data; modeling; some aspects of
visualization in virtual reality; and hardware architectures for
visu alization. Many papers first present a background introduction
to the topic, followed by discussion of current work in the topic.
The volume is thus equally suitable for nonspecialists in a
particular area, and for the more experienced researcher in the
field. It also enables general readers to obtain an acquaintance
with a particular topic area sufficient to apply that knowledge in
the context of solving current problems. The volume is organized
into four chapters - Visualization of Data, Modeling, Virtual
Reality Techniques, and Hardware Architectures for Visualization.
In the first chapter, Val Watson and Pamela Walatka address the
visual aspects of fluid dynamic computations. They discuss
algorithms for function-mapped surfaces and cutting planes,
isosurfaces, particle traces, and topology extractions. They point
out that current visualization systems are limited by low
information transfer bandwidth, poor response to viewing and model
accuracy modification requests, mismatches between model rendering
and human cognitive capabilities, and ineffective interactive
tools. However, Watson and Walatka indicate that proposed systems
will correct most of these problems.
