The needs for reusable 3D visualization tool has been being raised in various industries. Especially in the defense modeling and simulation (M&S) domain, there are abundant researches about reusable and interoperable visualization system, since it has a critical role to the efficient decision making by offering diverse validation and analyzing processes. To facilitate the effectiveness, states-of-the-arts M&S systems are applying VR (Virtual Reality) or AR (Augmented Reality) technologies. To reduce the work burden authors design a collaborative visualization environment based on a commercial game engine Unity3D. We define the requirements of the warfare simulation by analyzing pros and cons of existing tools and engines such as SIMDIS or Vega, and apply functionalities of the commercial game engine to satisfy the requirements. A prototype has been implemented as the collaborative visualization environment of iCAVE at KAIST, which is a facility for immersive virtual environment. The facility is intraoperative with smart devices.

The concern for the global environment ensues researchers from various disciplines to work in collaboration to tackle with the issues of sustainability and environmental conservation for well-being of the people. In this study, we have selected and focused on few basic environment-effecting factors such as temperature, humidity, carbon dioxide and oxygen concentration level and referred them as meteorological data. In this paper, we present the development of our own customized hardware setup, environmental monitoring device (EMD) to obtain the data. Utilizing the relationship among these basic parameters, represented in the form of formulas and equations, we tried to encode them using Matlab programming. Data visualization is achieved by plotting the graphs of basic parameters obtained from EMD as well for the derivatives using Matlab programs.

Amplified Collaboration Environment(ACE) is a display-rich project room that enables distributed teams to intensively work together to solve a complex problem. This paper presents reviews of some most important shared workspace models in real-time collaboration systems. It then describes a set of iterative design studies of evaluation the shared workspace for ACEs. The study involved small groups of users in two ACEs performed a collaborative visualization and analysis task while varying the display technology configuration. The goal of this study was to enhance intensive collaborative work in ACEs. The results showed that the participants benefited from the ability to see others' work over the high-resolution shared workspace, which helped enhance group awareness and performance.

In this paper, a CORBA-based collaborative medical image analysis and visualization system, which provides high accessibility and usability of the system for the users on distributed environment is introduced. The system allows us to manage datasets and manipulates medical images such as segmentation and volume visualization of computed geometry from biomedical images in distributed environments. Using Bayesian classification technique and an active contour model the system provides classification results of medical images or boundary information of specific tissue. Based on such information, the system can create real time 3D volume model from medical imagery. Moreover, the developed system supports collaborative work among multiple users using broadcasting and synchronization mechanisms. Since the system is developed using Java and CORBA, which provide distributed programming, the remote clients can access server objects via method invocation, without knowing where the distributed objects reside or what operating system it executes on.

Analysis of multi-physics systems and the visualization of simulation data are crucial and difficult in computational science and engineering. In Korea, Korea Institute of Science and Technology Information KISTI developed EDISON, a web-based computational science simulation platform, and it is now the ninth year since the service started. Hitherto, the EDISON platform has focused on providing a robust simulation environment and various computational science analysis tools. However, owing to the increasing issues in collaborative research, data format standardization has become more important. In addition, as the visualization of simulation data becomes more important for users to understand, the necessity of analyzing input / output data information for each software is increased. Therefore, it is necessary to organize the data format and metadata for the representative software provided by EDISON. In this paper, we analyzed computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and computational structural dynamics (CSD) simulation software in the field of mechanical engineering where several physical phenomena (fluids, solids, etc.) are complex. Additionally, in order to visualize various simulation result data, we used existing web visualization tools developed by third parties. In conclusion, based on the analysis of these data formats, it is possible to provide a foundation of multi-physics and a web-based visualization environment, which will enable users to focus on simulation more conveniently.

Grid-computing on networked computers is increasingly applied to the variety of large-scale computation problem. Several software systems are developed for providing the application programmers with computers available. However, these systems are not web-based systems, lacks a collaborative environment or do not supply the real-time visualization facility. Web technology is become the general technology on the development of network application, in particular, because the interface can be made platform independent. In this paper, we propose the web-based framework for executing the parallel SPMD application written MPI. Also, a web-based collaborative environment is development with a real-time visualization technology.

Increased competitive challenges are forcing companies to find better ways to bring their applications to market faster. Distributed development environments can help companies improve their time-to-market by enabling parallel activities. Although, such environments still have their limitations in real-time communication and real-time collaboration during the product development process. This paper describes a web-based collaborative framework which has been developed to support the decision making on a 3D design developing process. The paper describes 3D design file for the discussion that contains all relevant annotations on its surface and their visualization on the user interface for design changing. The framework includes a native CAD data converting module, 3D data based real-time communication module, revision control module for 3D data and some sub-modules such as data storage and data management. We also discuss some raised issues in the project and the steps underway to address them.

최근들어 제품을 개발하는 과정 중, 디자이너와 개발자, 의사 결정권자들이 FEM, CFD 시뮬레이션 결과를 리뷰할 때에 가상현실기술을 도입하는 사례가 늘고 있다. 몰입감을 높여주는 가상현실환경은 모델에 대한 해석 결과물을 정확하고 효과적으로 분석할 수 있도록 돕는다. 데이터의 실제 크기와 같게 혹은 그보다 더 크고 자세한 이미지를 제공하는 가상현실 몰입환경은 사용자가 데스크탑 환경만을 사용할 때 경험할 수 없는 높은 사실감을 제공함으로써 사용자에게 시각적인 만족감을 줄 수 있다. 하지만 데스크탑 환경에 비해 해상도가 낮고, 어두운 곳에서 스테레오 안경이나 HMD(Head Mounted Display), Data glove등을 착용해야 하는 불편함과 멀미, 시각적인 피로, 방향감각 상실로 대표되는 가상멀미 등으로 인해 장시간 사용에 어려움이 있다. 데스트탑 환경에서의 데이터 리뷰는 고해상도 이미지 분석은 가능하지만, 입체감이 떨어지기 때문에 리뷰 데이터의 실제감이 떨어진다. 이와 같은 문제점들을 보완하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 데스크탑 환경과 가상현실 환경 간의 협업이 가능한 FEM/CFD 가시화 시스템을 제시한다. 본 시스템은 가상현실 몰입환경에서 해석 데이터를 단순히 가시화하는 것뿐만이 아니라, 데스크탑 시스템과 동일한 3D 인터페이스 구조를 제공한다. 따라서, 해석 결과 분석을 위한 동일한 post-processing 작업이 네트워크로 연결된 원격 공간의 사용자들이 사용하는 시스템들 사이에서 실시간으로 진행될 수 있다.
