Special multiplatform visualization software developed by the author will allow readers to explore the exciting world of visual immersive mathematics, and the book software repository will provide a starting point for their own sophisticated visualization applications.

Making Images with Mathematics serves as a self-contained text for a one-semester computer graphics and visualization course for computer science and engineering students, as well as a reference manual for researchers and developers.

The LNCS journal Transactions on Computational Science reflects recent developments in the field of Computational Science, conceiving the field not as a mere ancillary science but rather as an innovative approach supporting many other scientific disciplines. The journal focuses on original high-quality research in the realm of computational science in parallel and distributed environments, encompassing the facilitating theoretical foundations and the applications of large-scale computations and massive data processing. It addresses researchers and practitioners in areas ranging from aerospace to biochemistry, from electronics to geosciences, from mathematics to software architecture, presenting verifiable computational methods, findings, and solutions, and enabling industrial users to apply techniques of leading-edge, large-scale, high performance computational methods.

 This, the 28th issue of the Transactions on Computational Science journal, is comprised of extendedversions of selected papers from the International Conference on Cyberworlds, CyberWorlds 2015, held in Gotland, Sweden, in October 2015. The first paper is a position paper, presenting open problems and identifying future directions within the domain. The remaining 8 papers focus on a range of topics, including virtual reality, games, haptic modeling, cybersecurity, brain wave analysis, shape parameterization, projects, and data mining. 

This, the 30th issue of the Transactions on Computational Science journal, is comprised of extended versions of selected papers from the International Conference on Cyberworlds, held in Chongqing, China, in September 2016. The first paper is a position paper giving an outline of current research at the intersection of cybersecurity and cyberworlds, and specifically focusing on mining behavioral data from online social networks. The remaining 5 papers focus on a range of topics, including privacy assurance in online location services, human gait recognition using KINECT sensors, hand-gesture recognition for computer games, scene matching between the source image and the target image for virtual reality applications, and human identification using brain waves.

This, the 32nd issue of the Transactions on Computational Science, focusses on cybersecurity and biometrics. The eight detailed papers cover the following topics: Multimodal Warnings for Distracted Smartphone Users on the Move; EEG-Based Mental Workload and Stress Monitoring of Crew Members in a Maritime Virtual Simulator; Detecting Web Defacement and Enabling Web-Content Regeneration; Software as a Weapon in the Context of (Inter)national Security; Multi-user Architecture and Multi-player Games; An Adaptive Discrete Wavelet Transform Based Face Recognition Approach; Synthesizing Images of Imagined Faces Based on Relevance Feedback;  and Neurofeedback Training to Enhance the Focused Attention of Elite Rifle Shooters.
