I treat three related subjects: virtual-worlds research-the construction of real-time 3-D illusions by computer graphics; some observations about interfaces to virtual worlds; and the coming application of virtual-worlds techniques to the enhancement of scientific computing. We need to design generalized interfaces for visualizing, exploring, and steering scientific computations. Our interfaces...

The theory of chi processes with the mismatch operator is studied. Two open congruence relations are investigated. These are weak early open congruence and weak late open congruence. Complete systems are given for both congruence relations. These systems use some new tau laws. The results of this paper correct some popular mistakes in literature.
