Overview

Visualization is useful for getting an insight into the huge amounts of data produced by large-scale simulations or advanced measurement devices. The use of computer graphics for science pruposes has become a well-established discipline, known as scientific visualization. Many problems still have to be solved, and hence the field is a very active area for research and development. The 13 contributions selected for this volume cover a wide range of topics, ranging from detailed algorithmic studies to searchers for new metaphors. A rough division can be made into the parts' interaction, irregular meshes, volume rendering and applications.
