Design visualization based on a machine readable physical model
Wang Qianping, John Hamilton Frazer, Tang Mingxi · Proceedings Fifth International Conference on Information Visualisation · 2002
This paper describes work on mapping from an abstract intelligent physical modelling system to a virtual modelling environment for design visualization. It also addresses related questions: Why is there a current revival of interest in these techniques? What is different now? Why use abstract representations? What were these systems for in the first place? What might be their new role in the future?.
