Abstract: Visualization is an interdisciplinary imaging science devoted to making the invisible visible by means of the techniques of experimental visualization and computer-aided visualization. Since the first publication of Journal of Visualization (JOV) in 1998, the Journal has been providing state-of-the-art information on this imaging science in full color in order for better understanding of the phenomena. Since the first issue, 10 volumes, 40 copies and approximately 430 papers have been published. The Editorial Board is composed of domestic and foreign researchers who are internationally active in this field. Thus, JOV is strongly characterized as an international technical journal. The JOV reached the 10th anniversary year in 2007, and the anniversary ceremonies were held in Tokyo, Hong Kong and Tallahassee.
