             UCSD Extension -- One Day Seminar

                   Volume Visualization:

   Creating Images from Three-dimensional Scientific Data

                      January 29, 1993
            University of California, San Diego



This course will focus primarily  on  volume  visualization,
the imaging of three-dimensional data sets, a powerful tech-
nique for gaining insight into both  acquired  and  computed
scientific  data.   The technique has become very popular in
such fields as  medicine,  physics,  mathematics,  molecular
science,  and geoscience, and is indispensable for analyzing
computational results. The seminar begins with an  introduc-
tion  to  volume visualization, followed by in-depth discus-
sion of  foundation  algorithms  and  fundamental  concepts.
Students  progress  to  a  rigorous introduction to advanced
algorithms and optimizations. The course approaches the sub-
ject  from  a  data-domain  standpoint  so that students can
immediately apply learned techniques to their own data.

Students also discuss examples, applications, commercial and
public  domain  software,  volume visualization futures, and
pointers to further information.  On-line demonstrations and
hands-on  training  is  also included.  Previous exposure to
computer graphics techniques is  useful  but  not  required.
Note: No visitors permitted.

T. Todd Elvins is an associate staff visualization  program-
mer  at  the  San  Diego  Supercomputer  Center, one of four
National Science Foundation  supercomputer  centers  in  the
U.S.   He  works  with  software engineers and animators who
research new  computer  graphics  techniques  and  has  been
involved  in  the  design  and  implementation  of  the SDSC
Advanced Scientific  Visualization  Laboratory.   Previously
Elvins worked at Culler Scientific Systems in Santa Barbara,
where he developed system software for  a  minisupercomputer
project.   Mr.  Elvins has published numerous papers and has
spoken in many courses on the subject of scientific visuali-
zation.   He  has  taught several tutorials on visualization
for Eurographics  in  the  United  Kingdom,  and  has  given
invited  visualization  talks  in Russia, Brazil, Venezuela,
and Austria. Elvins chaired the 1990 ACM San Diego  Workshop
on  Volume  Visualization.   He can be reached at (619) 534-

The Philadelphia Area Next User Group (PhaNG)
will be meeting the night of Thursday, January 14.
From 7-9 pm.
 
January's meeting will center on NeXT-based Publishing.
A representative from Frontier, Inc of Lancaster will be
on hand to demonstrate NeXT-based Publishing software.
Also, participants will get a look at the new NeXT ADB 
keyboard and mouse, the new Sony 17" Color monitor, 
and the inexpensive 360 dpi NeXT Color Postscript printer.
 
The speaker will be Bill Strehl, Executive Vice President
of the Association of NeXTSTEP Developers Internaltional.
 
The meeting will be held at MedEquity in Conshohocken.
 
Directions:
 
>From Philadelphia:
Take the Schuylkill Expressway west to the Conshohocken exit.
The off ramp pours you out onto a bridge; go over the bridge.
Take the first right immediately after you go over the bridge.
Be careful, this road is a speed trap.
 You will go down a hill and then straight for a short time (< 1/2 mile).
As you come to the top of the hill, bear left.
The road immediately goes right again (an S turn); follow it.
Follow this road until just before the first light.
Go left into the Lee Park parking lot (you can't miss it).
Go in the front door.
The auditorium is on the first floor.
Walk in the front door, and go straight on back.
If you get lost, call MedEquity at (215) 825-2929.

Please specify whether you would like paper or postscript.
   
For many people, NeXT's are almost mythical. Many, many
people have only heard or read about them. If you've ever
wanted to see a NeXT, learn more about NeXT's, or meet
people who own/use them, come on over.

I noticed postings of late on phl.misc. What does the topic of communism have
to do with Philadelphia? I am a relatively new Usenet newsgroup reader and I
have quickly come to see that cross postings are common and often senseless.
This is too bad. This common crossposting of stuff is really degrading a great
medium with lots of potential yet to be realized. The frequent postings to
newsgroups of long-winded messages concerning topics not relevent to a part-
cular newsgroup is also a problem which greatly degrades the utility and the
quality of this medium. Will we ever see postings on phl.misc or any of the
phl.* groups which do concern Philadelphia and Philadelphians? Thanks.

Can someone advise how to receive Penn's local newsgroup(s). Note that 
I'm not networked in the same way as most of you probably are--since I 
don't have access to a mainframe, I have to pay a commercial service 
(WorldLink, through PSI, Inc.) for my Internet connection. While their 
server does handle various Philadelphia newsgroups, it doesn't have any 
of the "local" Penn groups (I know of one called upenn.general). And 
since I'm not online "live" like I would be on a campus mainframe, I 
can't just specify it to receive it.

One method that comes to mind--is it possible to use EMail somehow to 
get the postings?

Thank you.

I.  Introduction to Japanese I (Monday & Wednesday/6:30-9:00pm)

	Prerequisite: mastery of Japanese orthography (katakana and hiragana)
	
	Textbook: Japanese for Busy People (Kodansha International)

	This class is an non-intensive Japanese class, covering a basic
	Japanese grammar with an emphasis on conversation.  Although it is a
	continuation of the same class from the last semester, it is open to
	anyone who meets the above prerequisite (or anyone who can catch up

	In this course, we will focus on learning Japanese conversation in
	business settings.  Aside from typical interactions in office
	situations, negotiations, meetings, etc., we will also learn to make
	reports and using Japanese wordprocessors.  The class will have several
	talks by Japanese businessmen about the actual business situations in
	the area.  Each students are to make two short presentations about some topics
	related to Japanese business.
