Description for Hierarchical and Geometrical Methods in Scientific Visualization
Hardback. This book emerged from a DoE/NSF-sponsored workshop in California in 2000. About 50 participants presented research on topics such as terrain modelling, multiresolution subdivision, wavelet-based scientific data compression, topology-based visualization, data structures and data indexing schemes. Editor(s): Farin, Gerald; Hamann, B.; Hagen, H. Series: Mathematics and Visualization. Num Pages: 373 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PDE; TBJ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 22. Weight in Grams: 708.
The nature of the physical Universe has been increasingly better understood in recent years, and cosmological concepts have undergone a rapid evolution (see, e.g., [11], [2],or [5]). Although there are alternate theories, it is generally believed that the large-scale relationships and homogeneities that we see can only be explainedby having the universe expand suddenlyin a very early “in?ationary” period. Subsequent evolution of the Universe is described by the Hubble expansion, the observation that the galaxies are ?ying away from each other. We can attribute di?erent rates of this expansion to domination of di?erent cosmological processes, beginning with radiation, evolving to ... Read more

Reviews for Hierarchical and Geometrical Methods in Scientific Visualization
From the reviews: "This work … introduce the first end-to-end multiresolution dataflow strategy that can effectively combine the top performing subdivision-surface wavelet compression and view-dependent optimization methods, thus increasing efficiency by several orders of magnitude over conventional processing pipelines. … Overall, this is the first effort to exploit semi-structured surface representations for a complete large-data ...
