Cooperative Design, Visualization, and Engineering

Many papers in this volume re?ect, to some degree, the active, rapid economic developmentincertaingeographicareasintheworldsuchasChina,Japan,South Korea,and EasternEurope, which demand cooperative work,particularly co- erative engineering, more than ever. New concepts and new ideas of cooperative design, visualization, and engineering have emerged to meet the higher demand resulting from the economic development in these areas. Another trend among the papers in this volume is to apply existing concepts and methods to new application areas. The emergence of new concepts can be considered as a signal of fruitful research with its maturity in the ?eld. This can be found in the papers of this year's conference. Cooperative design, visualization, and engineering via cloud computing is a new concept presented in a group of papers in this volume. The concept of cloud has been proposed for cooperative manufacturing, large scale cooperative simulation, and visualization, etc. Applying existing concepts to new application areas or creating new me- ods based on them is a logicaldirection to takefull advantageof the cooperative design, visualization, and engineering technology. This is no doubt the best way to widen anddeepen the knowledgein the ?eld. Typicalexamples in this volume include the cooperative visualization of DNA microarray data in bioinform- ics, astrophysical simulations, natural disaster simulations, and cooperative risk assessment, etc. As the volume editor, I would like to congratulate all the authors for their research and development results, raising cooperative technology to a new level.

Klappentext

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Cooperative Design, Visualization, and Engineering, CDVE 2010, held in Calvia, Mallorca, Spain, in September 2010. The 44 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers address all aspects of distributed computing, and were organized in topical sections on cooperative applications, cooperative design, cooperative visualization, and cooperative engineering. Many papers in this volume reflect, in some degree, the active, rapid economic development in certain geographic areas in the world such as China, Japan, South Korea, and Eastern Europe which demand the cooperative work, particularly cooperative engineering more than ever. New concepts and new ideas of cooperative design, visualization and engineering have emerged to meet the higher demand in economic development in these areas. Another trend among the papers in this volume is to apply existing concepts and methods to new application areas.
