IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications (often abbreviated IEEE CG&A) is a bimonthly[1][2] magazine on computer graphics published by the IEEE Computer Society since 1981.[3] The editor-in-chief is Pak Chung Wong.
Content
[edit | edit source]The magazine features shorter and less technical content than would appear in an academic journal and is meant for both experts and non-experts and often tutorial in nature.[4] It connects the theory of computer graphics to its practice,[1] providing coverage on topics including modeling, rendering, animation, (data) visualization, HCI/user interfaces, novel applications, hardware architectures, haptics, virtual and augmented reality systems, and medical imaging.[5][2]
One of its publishing innovations was the first animated hologram to appear on a magazine cover. The hologram, on its July 1988 cover, featured the baby from the 1988 Pixar short film Tin Toy, opening and closing its mouth.[6][7]
Perhaps because of its familiarity to visualization researchers, publications in the magazine have been used as a test set for works studying the visualization of citation networks.[8][9] One such analysis, for an 18-year range of publications, details the most frequently cited journals, works, and authors from articles published in the magazine, and relates a factor analysis of the articles to their subtopics.[8]
