PV-WAVE 7.5 ENHANCEMENTS 

• Produce 3D interactive graphics without having to understand the intricacies of OpenGL through the use of the Visualization Toolkit (VTK). A single command produces surfaces, scatterplots or line plots. High level functions are provided for ease of use and lower level functions to create more complex visulizations.

• This new functionalityprovides users all of the benefits of the VTK toolkit including.

- A wide variety of visualization algorithms like scalar, vector, tensor, texture and volumetric methods.

- Advanced modeling techniques like isosurfaces, streamlines, implicit modeling, cutting planes, swept surfaces hedgehogs, glyphs, texture mapping, clipping transparency and Delaunay triangulation.

- Many imaging algorithms allowing mixing of 2D imaging and 3D graphics.

• Over 30 new standard library features for manipulating data and making rapid prototyping and developing even easier.

• Expanded the Navigator to include pie charts and bar charts.
• New mathematics and statistics functions to help solve time series problems, financial problems and perform Monte Carlo simulations.

• Build PV-WAVE applications with accurate and reliable analysis.

• A new time series routine useful in navigation, surveying, vehicle tracking (aircraft, spacecraft, missiles), geology, oceanograpy, fluid dynamics, steel/paper/power industries and demographic estimation.
• 50 new functions in the area of finance and bonds.The new functions will help perform financial modeling to analyze various risk factors associated with business. Included are routines for calculating depreciation of assets, internal rates of return, bond amortization, and net present values.
• New routines to compute low discrepancy series of random points, which are valuable in Monte Carlo simulations.
• A new algorithm for efficient multi-dimensional quadrature offers a much more efficient and robust approach then previosly available in CNL.

* IMSL is also available in C and Fortran as standalone libraries.

• Updated support for Oracle and Sybase.

• Null data support for Oracle.
• DICOM reader/writer.
• GUI debugger.
