چکیده

This paper describes experiences of using a 3D Collaborative Virtual Environment (CVE) as a tool for a creative collaborative visualization of curriculum content in a university course. The goal of this project was to improve the students’ understanding of the curriculum and explore the possibilities of 3D CVEs in this context. The project resulted in a number of original virtual constructions visualizing topics and concepts introduced in the course. Based on this experience, the paper discusses the suitability of 3D CVEs for the task of creative curriculum visualization and elaborates on some pedagogical aspects.

PAC-C3D: A New Software Architectural Model for Designing 3D Collaborative Virtual Environments

We propose PAC-C3D as a new software model for 3D Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVE). This model merges the results from two research fields: distribution models for CVE and HCI design for computer-supported cooperative work. PAC-C3D proposes to describe each part of a shared virtual object through explicit interfaces to ensure a strong separation between the core functions of a virtual e...

Evaluation Framework for 3D Collaborative Virtual Environments (the Core)

As a consequence of the increasing interest in Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVEs) and the complex nature of such systems, the need for a thorough evaluation framework has become necessary. The current evaluation frameworks suffer from limitations in assessment because they are either confined to evaluation of a specific type of CVE or they focus on a restricted aspect of CVE. This paper ...

Collaborative Visualization: Topological Approaches to Parameter Tweaking for Informative Volume Rendering

Data crisis ubiquitously arises in solving complex scientific problems. It has motivated us to develop a Collaborative Visualization Environment (CVE ), which provides the users with the “serendipity” with the aid of effective data-centric tweaking of visualization-related parameters. To this end, we have proposed the concept of Volume Data Mining (VDM ), which takes full advantage of knowledge...
