The Web has come a long way since the first VRML conference, VRML '95, was held in San Diego in December 1995. The conference was known as VRML 'xx until 2001 when it was renamed the Web3D Symposium. This year the Web3D community attains a significant landmark, the 10th conference in the series. From San Diego in 1995, the conference moved to Monterey for 97 and 98, then to Europe (Paderborn in Germany) for 99, back to Monterey in 2000, Paderborn in 2001, Tempe Arizona in 2002, Saint Malo, France, in 2003, Monterey in 2004 and now, for the first time, Wales (UK) for 2005. Proceedings of all 10 conferences have been published by ACM Press and are incorporated into the ACM Digital Library. The Web3D Consortium and the Web3D community of researchers and practitioners works long and hard to foster the development and promote the use of International Standards for 3D graphics on the World Wide Web. This year has seen, among other things, the approval and publication of the X3D Specification as an ISO/IEC International Standard (ISO/ IEC 19775:2004), the emergence of the Medical Working Group, and new initiatives concerning Learning, Education and Training. This volume contains the papers accepted for the Web3D 2005 Symposium on 3D Web Technologies.
In the early days of the Web a need was recognized for a language to display 3D objects through a browser. An HTML-like language, VRML, was proposed in 1994 and became the standard for describing interactive 3D objects and worlds on the Web. 3D Web courses were started, several best-selling books were published, and VRML continues to be used today. However VRML, because it was based on HTML, is a stodgy language that is not easy to incorporate with other applications and has been difficult to add features to. Meanwhile, applications for interactive 3D graphics have been exploding in areas such as medicine, science, industry, and entertainment. There is a strong need for a set of modern Web-based technologies, applied within a standard extensible framework, to enable a new generation of modeling & simulation applications to emerge, develop, and interoperate. X3D is the next generation open standard for 3D on the web. It is the result of several years of development by the Web 3D Consortium's X3D Task Group. Instead of a large monolithic specification (like VRML), which requires full adoption for compliance, X3D is a component-based architecture that can support applications ranging from a simple non-interactive animation to the latest streaming or rendering applications. X3D replaces VRML, but also provides compatibility with existing VRML content and browsers. Don Brutzman organized the first symposium on VRML and is playing a similar role with X3D; he is a founding member of the consortium. Len Daly is a professional member of the consortium and both Len and Don have been involved with the development of the standard from the start.

The five-volume set LNCS 3980-3984 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications, ICCSA 2006. The volumes present a total of 664 papers organized according to the five major conference themes: computational methods, algorithms and applications high performance technical computing and networks advanced and emerging applications geometric modelling, graphics and visualization information systems and information technologies.
