- 1992 Boston Workshop on Volume Visualization
- October 19-20, 1992
- Park Plaza Hotel, Boston, MA
- --------------------------------
-
- Following-up the successful Chapel Hill and San Diego Workshops
- on Volume Visualization, this third workshop will combine papers,
- poster sessions, and works-in-progress of new developments in this
- evolving area. Scientists from all disciplines involved in the visual
- interpretation of volumetric data are invited to both submit and
- attend this exciting workshop.
-
- The Workshop is sponsored by ACM-SIGGRAPH in cooperation with the IEEE
- Computer Society Technical Committee on Computer Graphics. This
- Workshop will take place during the first two days of and in
- conjunction with the Visualization '92 conference, October 19-23, 1992
- at the Park Plaza Hotel in Boston, MA.
