This study was conducted to investigate the gender-related effects of two instructional programs on spatial visualization skills of ninth grade students. Two instructional programs were developed for this study: a web-based virtual reality program and a paper-based program. 194 ninth graders from two middle schools in Seoul participated in this study. Six classes were divided into experimental groups and control groups. The Middle Grades Mathematics Projects (MGMP) Spatial Visualization Test was used to measure spatial visualization skills. The data analysis indicated that both the web-based and paper-based programs were effective to improve spatial visualization skills to treatment groups. Although boys'test mean scores were higher than girls' in the pretest, when deleting the effect of covariance of pretest, there were no statistical significance in the post-test. Girls in the treatment groups favored the paper-based spatial visualization program. These results imply that spatial training may benefit girls' performance more than that of boys and mode of instructional programs can create gender-related differences regarding spatial visualization skills.

In this paper development of on-line data visualization program is described and some examples of data postprocessing are shown. The program is written in JAVA language and runs as a JAVA applet on the web browser such as Internet Explorer or Firefox. Remote users can use the program to visualize and analyze their own flow data by accessing the program server through the internet and loading data files in proper formats from their local computers. This paper describes briefly about algorithms for data visualization, structure and available functions of the program, and web sever system. The mechanism of how the JAVA applet can access and process local data files and relevant coding techniques are explained as well. Also explained is what is required for the remote users and client computers to access the program on-line. Some visualization examples performed on a local computer are illustrated by accessing the server remotely.

With the advance of the Internet and computing technologies, e-learning is now a hot issue worldwide for providing the effective learning on the cyber-space. However, most of existing e-learning contents have been developed mainly based on text, including simple multimedia elements such as images, animations, and voices. This paper suggests a method effective for the computer programming e-learning. The method is based on program visualization using flowcharts. It features the stepwise hierarchical program visualization on the level of statements, the flowchart based visualization for control constructs of languages, visualization over whole programs, visualization compared with source codes, and interaction with users. Finally, we implement a system to realize the suggested method, and execute it for an example program.

In this paper, our effort to apply 3-D Virtual Reality system for stereoscopic visualization of flow data is briefly described. This study is an extension of our previous and on-going research efforts to develop DATA(Data Analysis and Visualization Application) program, which is a data visualization program developed by using Qt as GUI development environment and OpenGL as graphic library. The program is developed upon the framework of object-oriented programming and it was originally developed by using Qt 3.3.3 environment. In this research the program is converted into a Qt 4.3.3-compatible version, and this new version is developed on Visual Studio 2005. And to achieve a stereoscopic viewing capability, two graphic windows are used to render its own viewing image for the lift and right eye respectively. These two windows are merged into one image using 3D monitor and the viewers can see the data visualization results with stereoscopic depth effects by using polarizing glasses. In this paper three dimensional data visualization with stereoscopic technique combined with 3D Monitor is demonstrated, and the current achievement would be a good start-up for further development of low-cost high-quality stereoscopic data visualization system.

Molecular visualization software has the common objective of manipulation and interpretation of data from numerical simulations. They visualize many complicated molecular structures with personal computer and workstation, to help analyze a large quantity of data produced by various computational methods. However, users are often discouraged from using these tools for visualization and analysis due to the difficult and complicated user interface. In this regard, we have developed an easy-to-use three-dimensional molecular visualization and analysis program named POSMOL. This has been developed on the Microsoft Windows platform for the easy and convenient user environment, as a compact program which reads outputs from various computational chemistry software without editing or changing data. The program animates vibration modes which are needed for locating minima and transition states in computational chemistry, draws two and three dimensional (2D and 3D) views of molecular orbitals (including their atomic orbital components and these partial sums) together with molecular systems, measures various geometrical parameters, and edits molecules and molecular structures.

A post-processing program based on the OOP(Object-Oriented Programming) concept has been developed for flow visualization of the flow analysis code(PowerCFD) using unstructured cell-centered method. User-friendly GUI(GTaphic User Interface) has been built on the base of MFC(Microsoft Foundation Class). The program is organized as modules by classes including those based on VTK(Visualization ToolKit)-library, and these classes are made to function through inheritance and cooperation which is an important and valuable OOP concept. The major functions of this post-processor program are introduced and demonstrated, which include mesh plot, contour plot, vector plot, surface plots, cut plot, clip plot, xy-plot and streamline plot as well as view manipulation (translation, rotation, scaling etc).

Each 3D visualization program has its own different structure as for the purpose. This paper describes the design and development of an on-line 3D core data visualization program, $RocDis^{TM}$, for the nuclear simulator. It is possible to analyze the inside of the core status including neutron flux, relative power, moderator and fuel temperature in 3D distribution. Some of other essential information, axial flux distribution etc. could also display in 2D graphs. This program would be design, tuning and training for the simulator core model.

A pellet program including a nested parallelism has a result of non-deterministic because of executed concurrently without synchronization. In order to detect like this error the visualization technique which is various is used. But the intuition characteristic is decreased because of limits of space and excessive abstraction. In this paper, proposes 3-D visualization engines which provide global structure of the arranging in a parallel program with nested parallelism which is complicated to the user. The visualization engine which is proposed provides global structure to the user as program easily to understand, it provides an effective debugging environment.
