`VRMLmakes it easyto create Virtualworlds. This
`
`tutorial reviews VRML’s syntax and features as well
`as its world construction and animation abilities.

`Developing the VRML 97
`International Standard
`George S. Carson, Richard F. Puk, and
`Rikk Carey
`VRML 97 arose from a cooperative effort between the
`standards and VRML communities. The methodology
`employed applies equally well to development of
`future standards.

`Using VRML
`Keith Russ andAndrew Wetherelt
`Traditionally, mine plans and sections in 2D stored
`3D information. This article shows that using VRML
`to model this information leads to new, interactive
`
`methods ofdatavisualization.

`The Making of VRML Dream
`Stephen N. Matsuba andBernie Roehl
`Bringing virtual theater to the Web requires 3D
`graphics, efficient networking, and strong content.
`The authors discuss the VRML Dream Project, a real-
`time Internet performance.
`
`Andre’ Gue’ziec, Gabriel Taubin, Bill Horn,
`and Francis Lazarus
`The authors introduce a framework for streaming
`geometry in VRML that eliminates the need to
`perform complete downloads of geometric models
`before starting to display them.
`
`Dynamics Modeling and Culling
`Stephen Chenney, Jefi‘rey Ichnowski, and
`DavidForsyth
`The tools described permit including large numbers
`ofcomplex dynamic models in a VRML world easily
`and efficiently while maintaining high frame rates.
