Mission Statement:

Computer, the flagship publication of the IEEE Computer Society, publishes peer-reviewed technical content that covers all aspects of computer science, computer engineering, technology, and applications. Computer is a resource that practitioners, researchers, and managers can rely on to provide timely information about current research developments, trends, best practices, and changes in the profession.

Visual Effects and Beyond

Oliver Bimber

Visual effects are becoming increasingly realistic, with advancing processing power, computer graphics methods, and display technology that in some cases even go beyond a pure visual experience. This special issue presents four articles that describe the state of the art in visual effects in theatrical movies, TV broadcasts, computer games, and theme parks. An additional article reviews the state of practice in software architectures and another offers a sociotechnical solution to the problem of controlling spam to improve communication efficiency.
