Download or read book Proceedings Web3D 2005 written by Stephen N. Spencer and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Web has come a long way since the first VRML conference, VRML '95, was held in San Diego in December 1995. The conference was known as VRML 'xx until 2001 when it was renamed the Web3D Symposium. This year the Web3D community attains a significant landmark, the 10th conference in the series. From San Diego in 1995, the conference moved to Monterey for 97 and 98, then to Europe (Paderborn in Germany) for 99, back to Monterey in 2000, Paderborn in 2001, Tempe Arizona in 2002, Saint Malo, France, in 2003, Monterey in 2004 and now, for the first time, Wales (UK) for 2005. Proceedings of all 10 conferences have been published by ACM Press and are incorporated into the ACM Digital Library. The Web3D Consortium and the Web3D community of researchers and practitioners works long and hard to foster the development and promote the use of International Standards for 3D graphics on the World Wide Web. This year has seen, among other things, the approval and publication of the X3D Specification as an ISO/IEC International Standard (ISO/ IEC 19775:2004), the emergence of the Medical Working Group, and new initiatives concerning Learning, Education and Training. This volume contains the papers accepted for the Web3D 2005 Symposium on 3D Web Technologies.

Book Scientific Visualization

Download or read book Scientific Visualization written by Charles D. Hansen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-18 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the seminar that took place in Dagstuhl, Germany in June 2011, this contributed volume studies the four important topics within the scientific visualization field: uncertainty visualization, multifield visualization, biomedical visualization and scalable visualization. • Uncertainty visualization deals with uncertain data from simulations or sampled data, uncertainty due to the mathematical processes operating on the data, and uncertainty in the visual representation, • Multifield visualization addresses the need to depict multiple data at individual locations and the combination of multiple datasets, • Biomedical is a vast field with select subtopics addressed from scanning methodologies to structural applications to biological applications, • Scalability in scientific visualization is critical as data grows and computational devices range from hand-held mobile devices to exascale computational platforms. Scientific Visualization will be useful to practitioners of scientific visualization, students interested in both overview and advanced topics, and those interested in knowing more about the visualization process.

Book The 15th International Conference on Biomedical Engineering

Download or read book The 15th International Conference on Biomedical Engineering written by James Goh and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-18 with total page 998 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the processing of the 15th ICMBE held from 4th to 7th December 2013, Singapore. Biomedical engineering is applied in most aspects of our healthcare ecosystem. From electronic health records to diagnostic tools to therapeutic, rehabilitative and regenerative treatments, the work of biomedical engineers is evident. Biomedical engineers work at the intersection of engineering, life sciences and healthcare. The engineers would use principles from applied science including mechanical, electrical, chemical and computer engineering together with physical sciences including physics, chemistry and mathematics to apply them to biology and medicine. Applying such concepts to the human body is very much the same concepts that go into building and programming a machine. The goal is to better understand, replace or fix a target system to ultimately improve the quality of healthcare. With this understanding, the conference proceedings offer a single platform for individuals and organizations working in the biomedical engineering related field to gather and network with each other in so doing create the catalyst for future development of biomedical engineering in Asia.
