Foreword to the special section on the Spring Conference on Computer Graphics 2015 (SCCG'2015)

[Excerpt] It is our pleasure to present this special section of Computers & Graphics (C&G), featuring the selected best papers presented at the 31st Spring Conference on Computer Graphics 2015 (www. sccg.sk), which was held April 22–24, 2015 in Smolenice, Slovakia. The venue is probably the oldest regular annual meeting of computer graphics in Central Europe, covering all relevant innovative ideas in computer graphics, image processing and their applications. The philosophy of SCCG is to bring together top experts and young researchers in CG in order to support a good and sustained communication channel for East–West European exchange of prospective ideas.

Computer aided geometric design

Journal ArticleThis book contains the edited proceedings of the first International Conference on Computer Aided Geometric Design, an important new field that draws on the principles of computer science, mathematics, and geometric design. The list of contributors includes most of the leading researchers in the field in North America and Europe. The papers, containing results that are not available elsewhere, are principally concerned with Coons patches, Bezier curves, and various kinds of splines, with their applications to computer aided geometric design. The book will prove of great value to computer scientists (especially those in computer graphics), numerical analysts, applied mathematicians, mechanical, civil, aeronautical, automotive engineers, and naval architects in academic or industrial positions and government laboratories

Scoping Study for a Realistic Driving Simulator: Final Report.

1. INTRODUCTION This report documents the results of a study carried out between December 1989 and March 1990 to determine the most suitable equipment to be purchased for building a driving simulator at the Institute for Transport Studies at the University of Leeds. This "scoping study" was intended to accomplish three main tasks: 1. A review of existing facilities both in the UK and elsewhere in Europe to ascertain what has already been achieved and what is the current state of the art. 2. Initial discussions with potential users on desired features to be built in to the simulator. 3. Discussions with equipment suppliers in the light of what was found out in Tasks 1 and 2, so that the appropriate equipment could be specified. The report documents in subsequent sections the findings of the first two tasks. It then summarizes the conclusions that were reached on the overall simulator design, on the required features of the simulator and on the effort required to develop an operational simulator from the various hardware components. Finally, recommendations are made on the equipment to be purchased in the light of the recommended configuration, the discussion with equipment suppliers under Task 3 and the budget allocated
