This presentation explores the role of visualization in a multidisciplinary environment, like LBNL. 1997.

LBNL/NERSC CS 267 Lectures

Don't blissfully believe everything you see in scientific visualization. This talk was a solicited part of a panel at IEEE Visualization 1995, and describes a specific instance in which scientific visualization gave an incorrect answer due to bugs in the underlying commercial software! Summer 1995.

What is Virtual Reality, and how does it relate to Scientific Computing at LBNL? This presentation was prepared for one of our colleagues at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory, and is known internally as the "leg talk." Summer 1995.
