Multimedia illustration of a mathematical model in a scientific article

Abstract

As a rule, an illustration is one of the key components of presenting a mathematical model. When illustrations are based on multimedia technologies they become particularly informative and catch the reader’s interest. Most of the scientific articles today are available online anyway; thus, the authors could use multimedia tools to brighten dry texts. Unfortunately, multimedia instruments are still rarely used in scientific papers because of the inertia of the printed media and technical difficulties. Different ways of using illustrations in multimedia and the experience of Russian scientific publications in this field are considered.
