【 摘 要 】

Two programs have been written in C++ to greatly automate the process of computer simulation visualization inmost cases. These programs, rasterize.C and tracker.C, can be used to generate numerous images in order to create a video or still ties. In order to limit the amount of time and work involved in visualizing simulations, both of these programs have their own specific output formats. The first output format, from rasterize.C, is best suited for those who need only to visualize the actions of a single element, or elements that work on roughly the same time scale. The second format, from tracker.C, is best suited for simulations which involve multiple elements that work on different time scales and thus must be represented in a manner other than straight forward visualization.
