Críticas:

Larry Rosenblum and many of his collaborators in the collection Scientific Visualization: Advances and Challenges were critical participants in the subsequent movement to define the field and to help it evolve from a hodge-podge of heuristics toward its deeper conceptual roots. The nominal goal of this book is to provide a broad picture of the current state of the art--a checkpoint on what has happened since 1987--to scientists with a vested interest in visualization methods. In this it largely succeeds....Scientific Visualization: Advances and Challenges provides a look at the global issues that are significant for visualization science, as well as getting down to detailed examples in several areas.--IEEE COMPUTATIONAL SCIENCE & ENGINEERING

Reseña del editor:

Numerical simulations of global warming, Mars observation data, and aircraft design are but a few of the topics where the use of human visual perception for data understanding are considered essential. Ten years agoa handful of pioneers professed the value of visualization to skeptical audiences. Today, with supercomputers and sensors producing ever-increasing amounts of data, scientific visualization is accepted throughout much of science and engineering as the fundamental tool for data analysis.Written by a world-wide panel of visualization experts, Scientific Visualization: Advances and Challenges presents astute coverage of prevailing trends, issues, and practice of scientific visualization. From algorithmic topics such as volume graphics and the modeling and visualization of large data sets, to foundations, perception, and interface technology (including virtual reality), this book provides the latest advances in the area. The book demonstrates new techniques, examines diverse application areas, and discusses current limitations and upcoming requirements.Scientific Visualization:Advances and Challenges $> presents readers with a unique opportunity to examine expert thinking and current practice, and to obtain a vision of potential future directions. It will be essential reading for scientific and engineering practitioners and visualization researchers alike.
