ftp://ftp.geom.umn.edu/pub/software/Linktool-2.1.tar.Z LinkTool <author> <version>2.1 <abstract> LinkTool is a NeXTStep application for manipulation of knots, links, and braids. It allows the user to enter links with the mouse or via Conway notation and redisplay links and tangles, smoothed out with splined curves and with rope-texture. <description><url>http://www.geom.umn.edu/docs/software/viz/software.html</url> <reference><url></url> <contact> <keywords>computational geometry <category>numerical-compgeom <publication-date> <environment>NeXTStep <method> <application> <comments> </urc> <urc> <url>ftp://ftp.geom.umn.edu/pub/software/ODE.tar.Z <title>ODE App - Ordinary Differential Equation Application <author> <version> <abstract> ODE App is an interactive flow viewer for ordinary differential equations. It allows symbolic entry of the differential equations as well as the projection map from dynamic space to screen space. Supports all DynamicKit interactive features. <description><url>http://www.geom.umn.edu/docs/software/viz/software.html</url> <reference><url></url> <contact> <keywords>differential equations <category>numerical <publication-date> <environment>NeXTStep <method> <application>ordinary differential equations <comments> </urc> <urc> <url>ftp://ftp.geom.umn.edu/pub/software/polycut.tar.Z <title>Polycut <author> <version> <abstract> Polycut is a program for visualizing covering spaces of 3D Euclidean space from the inside. Branch curves are various loops and knots. The aim is to illustrate the author's contention that soap films are best viewed as minimal area cuts in covering spaces. <description><url>http://www.geom.umn.edu/docs/software/viz/software.html</url> <reference><url></url> <contact> <keywords>data visualization; computational geometry <category>numerical-compgeom <publication-date> <environment>SGI IRIS <method> <application> <comments> </urc> <urc> <url>ftp://ftp.geom.umn.edu/pub/software/qhull.tar.Z <title>Quick Hull <author> <version> <abstract> Quick Hull is a general dimension convex hull and Delaunay triangulation computations program. It implements the quick hull algorithm. The two main advantages of Quick Hull over other convex hull algorithms are output-sensitive performance and early termination with an approximate convex hull. <description><url>http://www.geom.umn.edu/docs/software/viz/software.html</url> <reference><url></url> <contact> <keywords>computational geometry <category>numerical-compgeom <publication-date> <environment> <method>quick hull algorithm <application>Delaunay triangulation, convex hull computation <comments>Source distribution packaged for Macintosh also available. </urc> <urc> <url>ftp://ftp.geom.umn.edu/pub/software/snappea-src.tar.Z <title>Snappea <author>Jeff Weeks <version> <abstract> Snappea is a hyperbolic structures computation program. <description><url>http://www.geom.umn.edu/docs/software/viz/software.html</url> <reference><url></url> <contact> <keywords>computational geometry <category>numerical-compgeom <publication-date> <environment> <method> <application>hyperbolic structures <comments>Binaries available for SGI, NeXT, Sun4, and Mac. </urc>
