ApE, AVS, IBM Data Explorer, and IRIS Explorer pioneered data flow and
visual programming for technical visualization; is the next wave going
to be object-oriented visual programming based on reusable components
such as Java Beans?  Bring your ideas, opinions, and suggestions to our

Environments, Sunday 19 July 1998 at approximately 5:00 pm at the
Birds-of-a-Feather room.  Check kiosk displays near the registration
