Addressing problems in physics, chemistry, materials science, and computer science, Graphics and Animation in Surface Science demonstrates how graphics and animation can be used as integral tools for understanding molecular processes in science. The book presents several different types of graphics of varying sophistication, and shows how difficult aspects of physical problems can be modeled and understood using graphical simulations. It introduces terminology where applicable, explores a wide variety of applications, and illustrates some results in an eight-page color section. Requiring only a modest amount of computing knowledge, the book includes abundant references for further reading with contact names and addresses that enable readers to obtain software to reproduce the results described in the text.
Beginning in 1924, Proceedings are incorporated into the Apr. number.

This book is a comprehensive introduction to visual computing, dealing with the modeling and synthesis of visual data by means of computers. What sets this book apart from other computer graphics texts is the integrated coverage of computer graphics and visualization topics, including important techniques such as subdivision and multi-resolution modeling, scene graphs, shadow generation, ambient occlusion, and scalar and vector data visualization. Students and practitioners will benefit from the comprehensive coverage of the principles that are the basic tools of their trade, from fundamental computer graphics and classic visualization techniques to advanced topics.
CAD84: 6th International Conference and Exhibition on Computers in Design Engineering is a collection of 64 conference papers that covers a wide range of topics on computer-aided design (CAD) and CADCAM, including CAD process plant designs, techniques, drafting systems, electronics, geometric design, kinematics, mechanical engineering, solid modelling, and structures. The book starts by describing the progress that has been made in hardware and software. The text continues by presenting papers about interactive system for the design and production of computer programs; an algorithmic language for the definition and manipulation of drawings; and a software tool to enable application dialog in...
