Text of Note

This book presents the tutorial notes of the EUROGRAPHICS '89 conference held in Hamburg in September 1989. Recognized experts of the field have contributed excellent overviews of main stream areas of computer graphics. Especially written for this book the articles give an up-to-date survey of the topics selected. The contents includes chapters about visualization of scientific data, color, solid modeling, computational geometry, object-oriented graphics, page description languages, and standards for computer graphics and product model data. This book will be a source of state-of-the-art knowledge in the areas covered for system designers and application programmers as well as for researchers.
