Teaching Research Activities Publications About Me


Ken Brodlie
 Ken Brodlie is Professor of Visualization in the School of Computing at the University of Leeds . Within the School, I head the Visualization and Virtual Reality research group.

Teaching My teaching covers the broad areas of visualization, computer graphics and virtual environments.
Research Working within the Visualization and Virtual Reality Research Group, I have personal research interests in the theory and practice of visualization, with specific focus on:
  • Visualization systems: extending current systems to encompass collaboration, computational steering and Web and Grid technologies
  • Visualization algorithms: enhancing existing algorithms for isosurfacing and volume rendering, and developing new algorithms for constrained visualization and high dimensionality
  • Visualization applications: using visualization in e-science, astronomy, biology and medicine
  • Visualization foundations: understanding errors in visualization, and developing visualization ontologies
The group works particularly closely with IRIS Explorer : Indeed much of our visualization research is realised as extensions to IRIS Explorer, and made generally available through the IRIS Explorer Centre of Excellence , a joint collaboration between the University and NAG Ltd.  Our e-science activity is centred on the White Rose Grid, a Centre of Excellence for the UK e-Science programme.
Activities My activities page includes links to my various external activities.
