In the design of any visual objects, the work becomes much easier
if previous designs are utilized. Computer graphics is becoming
increasingly important simply because it greatly helps in utilizing
such previous designs. Here, "previous designs" signifies both
design results and design procedures. The objects designed are
diverse. For engineers, these objects could be machines or
electronic circuits, as discussed in Chap. 3, ''CA~/CAM. ''
Physicians often design models of a patient's organs from computed
tomography images prior to surgery or to assist in diagnosis. This
is the subject of Chap. 8, "Medical Graphics. " Chapter 7,
"Computer Art," deals with the way in which artists use computer
graphics in creating beautiful visual images. In Chap. 1,
"Computational Geometry," a firm basis is provided for the
definition of shapes in designed objects; this is a typical
technical area in which computer graphics is constantly making
worldwide progress. Thus, the present volume, reflecting
international advances in these and other areas of computer
graphics, provides every potential or actual graphics user with the
essential up-to-date information. There are, typically, two ways of
gathering this current information. One way is to invite
international authorities to write on their areas of
specialization. Usually this works very well if the areas are
sufficiently established that it is possible to judge exactly who
knows what. Since computer graphics, however, is still in its
developmental stage, this method cannot be applied.
