Welcome to ACM Multimedia '96 Special Events Conference-at-a-Glance Ongoing Events Courses Technical Papers Panels Registration Course Selections Hotels Conference Organization Welcome to ACM Multimedia '96 In what seems in retrospect to have been an astonishingly short time, multimedia has progressed from a technically- challenging curiosity to an essential feature of most computer systems -- both professional and consumer. Accordingly, leading-edge research in multimedia no longer is confined to dealing with processing or information- access bottlenecks, but addresses the ever-broadening ways in which the technology is changing and improving interpersonal communication, professional practice, entertainment, the arts, education, and community life. This year's program emphasizes this trend: off-the-shelf building blocks are now available to construct useful and appealing applications which are highlighted in the Demonstration and Art venues. In addition to the full complement of panels, courses, and workshops, the conference program features a distinguished set of technical papers. Keynotes will be provided by Glenn Hall, the Technical Director of Aardman Animations whose work includes Wallace and Gromit; and Professor Bill Buxton of the University of Toronto and Alias | Wavefront Inc.

  • Model Synthesis: a General Procedural Modeling Algorithm Paul Merrell and Dinesh Manocha University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
    IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON VISUALIZATION AND COMPUTER GRAPHICS 1 Model Synthesis: A General Procedural Modeling Algorithm Paul Merrell and Dinesh Manocha University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Abstract—We present a method for procedurally modeling general complex 3D shapes. Our approach can automatically generate complex models of buildings, man-made structures, or urban datasets in a few minutes based on user-defined inputs. The algorithm attempts to generate complex 3D models that resemble a user-defined input model and that satisfy various dimensional, geometric, and algebraic constraints to control the shape. These constraints are used to capture the intent of the user and generate shapes that look more natural. We also describe efficient techniques to handle complex shapes, highlight its performance on many different types of models. We compare model synthesis algorithms with other procedural modeling techniques, discuss the advantages of different approaches, and describe as close connection between model synthesis and context-sensitive grammars. Index Terms—model synthesis, procedural modeling F 1 INTRODUCTION guidance. In this paper, we address the problem of generating REATING 3D digital content for computer games, complex models using model synthesis. Model synthesis C movies, and virtual environments is an important is a simple technique [26], [28] proposed to automatically and challenging problem. It is difficult because objects generate complex shapes.

  • Polynomial Transformations of Tschirnhaus, Bring and Jerrard
    ACM SIGSAM Bulletin, Vol 37, No. 3, September 2003 Polynomial Transformations of Tschirnhaus, Bring and Jerrard Victor S. Adamchik Department of Computer Science, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, USA [email protected] David J. Jeffrey Department of Applied Mathematics, The University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada [email protected] Abstract Tschirnhaus gave transformations for the elimination of some of the intermediate terms in a polynomial. His transformations were developed further by Bring and Jerrard, and here we describe all these transformations in modern notation. We also discuss their possible utility for polynomial solving, particularly with respect to the Mathematica poster on the solution of the quintic. 1 Introduction A recent issue of the BULLETIN contained a translation of the 1683 paper by Tschirnhaus [10], in which he proposed a method for solving a polynomial equation Pn(x) of degree n by transforming it into a polynomial Qn(y) which has a simpler form (meaning that it has fewer terms). Specifically, he extended the idea (which he attributed to Decartes) in which a polynomial of degree n is reduced or depressed (lovely word!) by removing its term in degree n ¡ 1. Tschirnhaus’s transformation is a polynomial substitution y = Tk(x), in which the degree of the transformation k < n can be selected. Tschirnhaus demonstrated the utility of his transformation by apparently solving the cubic equation in a way different from Cardano. Although Tschirnhaus’s work is described in modern books [9], later works by Bring [2, 3] and Jerrard [7, 6] have been largely forgotten. Here, we present the transformations in modern notation and make some comments on their utility.

  • The Changing Shape of the Computing World
    Outside the Box — The Changing Shape of the Computing World Steve Cunningham Computer Science California State University Stanislaus Turlock, CA 95382 [email protected] http://www.cs.csustan.edu/~rsc Something happened to computing while many of us were busy practicing or teaching our craft, and computing is not quite the same thing we learned. We can ignore this change and others will take our place and teach about it, but they will not have the context and the skill to understand the technology behind it and to carry it forward to the success it should have. And if others carry that torch, computer science will be stunted because we didn't recognize and respond to the opportunity. What happened? Simply this—that Xerox and Apple and, yes, Microsoft opened up the box labeled “CAUTION: Computer Inside” and let the user into the computing picture. Users responded hesitantly but increasingly eagerly and now expect the computer to work for them instead of their working for the computer. Every application now in wide use, and any system that supports a general market, has evolved to meet that expectation. Any computing education that does not pay attention to the user’s role in computing is missing the most vibrant and exciting part of computing today. As it says at the top of this page, you are reading an editorial, not an academic paper. As an editorial, this note represents my personal passion and commitment to the user communication part of computing that the “official” computing establishment has long discounted, and I appreciate John Impagliazzo’s offer of this forum to make my case that computer science is missing the boat in not understanding the need to reshape computer science education to fill this void.

  • Geometric Modelling: Lessons Learned from the 'Step' Standard
    GEOMETRIC MODELLING: LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE 'STEP' STANDARD Michael J. Pratt LMR Systems, UK Abstract: The first release of the international standard ISO 10303 (STEP) occurred in 1994. Since that time there has been much activity in translator development and in the testing of STEP data transfer in industrial applications. Meanwhile, further development of the standard is proceeding, driven to some extent by experience gained in the use of the initial 1994 release. This paper surveys some of the lessons that have been learned in using STEP, concentrating mainly on issues arising in the geometric modelling area. Suggestions are made for overcoming some of the problems encountered. Keywords: ISO 10303, STEP, shape modelling, algebraic geometry, application programming interfaces, geometric accuracy problem, procedural modelling. 1. INTRODUCTION TO ISO 10303 The international standard ISO 10303 (ISO 1994, Owen 1997), informally known as STEP (STandard for the Exchange of Product model data), has a very ambitious coverage: the capture, in electronic form, for data sharing and exchange, of product life-cycle data for manufactured products in general. Since the initial release in 1994 of twelve parts of ISO 10303, some thirty further parts have been published, and many more are under development. Compared with its predecessor IGES (USPro 1996), STEP is intended to handle a much wider range of product-related data, and it is defined in terms of EXPRESS, an information modeling language that forms part of the F. Kimura (ed.), Geometric Modelling © Springer Science+Business Media New York 2001 standard. EXPRESS is used for the formal definition of exchangeable constructs, though the actual physical format in which the information is represented in an exchange file or a shared database is not that of EXPRESS itself.

    SIGCHI Conferences Report " ! " ! " May 22, 2018 SIGCHI (Special Interest Group on Computer-Human Interaction) is led by the SIGCHI Executive committee and one of the appointed roles on this committee is the ACM SIGCHI Vice President for Conferences. This person is responsible for overseeing all aspects of SIGCHI-sponsored conferences and SIGCHI currently sponsors 24 conferences. www.si In addition to the annual CHI conference, the Specialised Conferences program of ACM SIGCHI has gradually evolved and has now become a significant part of the conference program that is offered to the HCI community at large. Across our conferences we have over 9,000 delegates attend our 24 conferences, with around 3000 of these attending CHI. This program includes all conferences involving ACM SIGCHI other than the annual CHI conferences. Throughout this report there are references to Specialised Conferences (e.g. Group to VRST) and CHI. Each conference has a steering committee and the chair of each steering committee serves on the ACM SIGCHI Council of Steering Committee Chairs. In addition we have an Adjunct Chair for CHI on the SIGCHI EC along with a SIGCHI Conference Board which works with the ACM SIGCHI VP for Conferences. The CHI Steering Committee oversees the activities of all CHI conference committee chairs from CHI 2018 onwards. It ensures that the objectives of the conference as established by the Steering Committee and EC are met. The CHI Steering Committee was created by SIGCHI Executive Committee in 2016. From CHI 2018 onwards, this committee serves as a focal point for communications between the conference committee, CHI attendees, CHI committees, CHI vendors, CHI liaison, SIGCHI and the SIGCHI Services Staff.
