Abstract:

Many researchers require the viewing of complex, detailed models to be displayed on the computer screen. To do this, it is desirable to have a program that can load model files with ease. Elodin lets someone load up a file in the specified format and then automatically generate or change the default viewing parameters. This program is able to load different models successively and use a given centering technique to automatically view the model in an appropriate manner. This will facilitate the researchers with better software thus they will increase the productivity of their sessions.
