چکیده
The Virtual Reality Gorilla Exhibit is a system for teaching users about gorilla behaviors and social interactions. The system includes an accurate model of the Zoo Atlanta gorilla habitats and anthropometrically correct gorilla models and behaviors. In the virtual environment the user assumes the persona of an adolescent gorilla. By exploring the habitat and interacting with other gorillas, the user learns about issues in gorilla habitats and about gorilla social hierarchies. Results from preliminary user testing indicate the system successfully accomplishes its goals.

Three-Dimensional Computation Visualization Technical Report GIT-GVU-92-20
Systems supporting the visualization and animation of algorithms, programs, and computations have focused primarily on two-dimensional graphics to date. In this paper we identify the need for three-dimensional graphics in these types of displays, and we describe how 3D imagery best can be used for visualizing computations. We also introduce an animation toolkit that supports simpli ed developme...
متن کاملAn interview - based study of display space management Technical Report GIT - GVU - 03 - 17 May 2003
There are a number of challenges for researchers in the area of window and screen space management: (1) many systems have been proposed, but little study on people’s window interaction habits exists, (2) users of emerging display systems have different properties and needs than users of single-display systems, yet users might also interact with several different types of systems, and (3) evalua...
متن کاملGvu: A View-Oriented Framework for Data Management in Grid Environments
In a grid, data is stored in geographically-dispersed virtual organizations with varying administrative policies and structures. Current grid middleware provide basic data-management services including data access, transfer and simple replica management. Grid applications often require much more sophisticated and flexible mechanisms for manipulating data than these, including logical hierarchic...

متن کاملGlucose infusion test (GIT) compared with the saline dilution technology in recirculation measurements.
BACKGROUND Glucose infusion test (GIT) is a new method to measure vascular access recirculation (R) based on basal glucose increase in the arterial blood line after a 20% glucose bolus (5 ml) into the venous chamber. METHODS We compared GIT with the ultrasound dilution method (HD01, Transonic Systems Inc., USA) in a circuit reproducing in vitro the phenomenon of R. We repeated the comparison ...
