DISTRIBUTED VISUALIZATION SYSTEMS Saturday, October 17, 1998, 8:00am-5:00pm, Imperial 1 Michel Grave, ONERA & UniversitŽ de La Rochelle, grave@onera.fr Wilfrid Lefer, UniversitŽ du Littoral, Calais, lefer@lil.univ-littoral.fr http://www-lil.univ-littoral.fr/~lefer/IEEEWorkshop.html This diverse group of workshop participants will share and
consolidate their various experiences in the field of remotely accessing distributed data
through visual interfaces, including CSCW, distributed VR, and database issues.
Discussions will be organized around three main topics; Applications of Distributed
Visualization, Environments & User Interfaces, and Technologies for Distributed
Visualization. A report about the workshop will be prepared and is planned for
publication in an international journal. The workshop content will be used to
prepare a larger workshop or a full symposium with refereed papers at future Visualization
conferences. |
MULTI-RESOLUTION REPRESENTATION OF 3D GEOMETRY FOR PROGRESSIVE TRANSMISSION Saturday, October 17, 1998, 1:00pm-5:00pm, Imperial 2 AndrŽ Gueziec, IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, gueziec@watson.ibm.com Gabriel Taubin, IBM T.J. Watson Research Center, taubin@watson.ibm.com Click Here for the Detailed Description The purpose of this workshop is to present the state of the art
in the field for visualization problems involving large geometric databases (such as
geographic data sets), where the issue of progressive transmission or display is
important. There will be several short "invited" talks by experts in the
field, and then participants will discuss the state of the art, compare alternatives, and
outline the issues to be solved by attempting to answer the questions regarding:
already solved and unsolved problems, wavelet-based vs. polygonal surface based approaches
for progressive 3D geometry transmission, progressive transmission and view-dependent
refinement of 3D geometry, and methods for singular (non-manifold) input geometry. |
