handling conventional graphics
applications with volumetric
techniques. This course provided an
overview of volume graphics, with a
focus on volume modeling, volume
manipulation, volume rendering, and
their applications. It was divided into two
portions structured as two half-day
courses. The morning was devoted to
fundamentals of volume graphics,
modeling, and associated applications.
The afternoon was devoted to volume
rendering, manipulation, and associated
applications. The course covered the
technology and several major
applications, available tools and
techniques, the challenges confronting
the field of volume graphics, and some
