MegaMol – A Prototyping Framework for Particle-based Visualization

Today, I am only writing a short note on MegaMol.

We have done it! We published the MegaMol system as systems paper:

All the hard work really paid off. MegaMol has now been published in the IEEE Journal “Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics”, in short TVCG. That is the top journal of the visualization community. I have to admit, I am pretty proud.

And I am curious what will come next. I would like to continue working with MegaMol, and to help to evolve the software even further. But, of course, this depends on my future employment. MegaMol has such a potential. *sigh*
