Visualizing reflections in rooms with computer graphics

Computer Simulation Techniques for Acoustical Design of Rooms - How to Treat Reflections in Sound Field Simulation

The paper presents a number of problems related to sound reflections, and possible solutions or approximations that can be used in computer models. The problems include: specular and diffuse reflections, early and late reflections, scattering due to rough structure of surfaces, diffraction due to finite size of surfaces, curved surfaces, convex and concave surfaces, angle dependent absorption. ...

Decision making with computer graphics

Computer-driven displays have long been thought to help decision making. But the justification for using these devices in decision-making has been long on intuition and short on quantitative analysis. To see if this intuition was right, we conducted an experiment. Eighteen interested and experienced decision-makers in the inventory control field met for twenty class hours of instruction in adva...

Teaching Computer Graphics with Spreadsheets

Spreadsheets are a great way to introduce computer graphics concepts to computer science students. Through direct manipulation of numbers, students develop a more concrete understanding of the data they compute from the formulas they derive and use. This paper presents some experiences using spreadsheets for in-class demonstrations and homework assignments.
