We present several elegant methods used in GraphPack, an educational package, for three dimensional embedding of graphs, as well as a two dimensional layout method, namely barycentric embedding. After that, a program for automatic recognition of graphs is introduced. In addition, we show how graphs in GraphPack format can be exported into XXg format. Finally, we describe the client/server capab...

The purpose of this article is to introduce the reader to the free data analysis software package ROOT. ROOT is superior to, and more flexible than, many other commonly used data analysis tools, including most spreadsheet applications. In this article, simple examples are given to demonstrate how ROOT may used to complement one’s accident reconstruction analyses. To aid the new user, example RO...

This paper describes the package EVEGA (Educational Visualization Environment for Graph Algorithms) and possible ways of incorporating it into the teaching of algorithms. The tool is freely available, platform− and network−independent, and highly interactive. The tool is designed for three different groups of users: students, instructors, and developers. Interaction with EVEGA can be achieved t...

The discipline of structural geology is taking an advantage compiling observations from multiple field sites to comprehend the bigger picture and constrain region's geological evolution. In this study we demonstrate how integration a range geospatial digital data sets that relate Paleogene fault thrust belt exposed in high Arctic Archipelago Svalbard, used teaching bachelor-level courses at Uni...
