    14 software developed by the RRZN
    15 (Stephan Olbrich, Carsten Chmielewski) allows a creation of plot
    16 sequences with PALM,
    17 which can be animated via a special plugin for internet browsers. With
    18 suitable graphic hardware even stereoscopic views are

     13only available on the the HLRN/IMUK system and partly on RIAM's NEC

     15software was originally developed by the RRZN
     16(Stephan Olbrich, Carsten Chmielewski) and is meanwhile continuosly developed and improved under the name <span style="font-weight: bold;">dsvr</span> by the University of D&uuml;sseldorf (Prof. Stephan Olbrich, see webpage of the <a href="http://www.dsvr-software.de/">dsvr-software</a>). It allows to create 3d-animations with PALM,
     17which can be displayed via a special plugin for internet browsers. With
     18suitable graphic hardware (e.g. NVIDIA quattro FX cards) even stereoscopic views are
     19possible.</p><p style="line-height: 100%;">
