Report on the 2nd Dagstuhl Seminar on Scientific Visualization
Abstract
Scientific Visualization is currently a very active and vital area of research,
teaching and development. The success of Scientific Visualization is mainly
due to the soundness of the basic premise behind it, that is, the basic idea of
using computer-generated pictures to gain information and understanding
from data (geometry) and relationships (topology). This is an extremely
intiutive and very important concept which is having a profound and wide
spread impact on the methodology of science and engineering.
