  text: 'This paper describes a method for the animation of a large number of objects
    within a dynamic 3D visualization of a material flow simulation model. It uses
    key-frame based animation. The number of animated objects may grow constantly
    in complex simulation models, which might lead to an amount of animations that
    is too big to be computed in real-time. By the use of a dynamic adjustment, the
    presented algorithm prefers important animations. Less relevant animations are
    updated rarely, whereby the selection itself is taken by multiple indicators,
    e.g. the visible size of the animated object on the screen, in order to keep a
    good optical impression. Dependent on the computing power of the computer, the
    algorithm controls the animations in such a way, that the fluid visualization
    of a large number of objects is still possible. Though the algorithm is to be
    used within a material flow simulator, it is moreover implemented in a specific
    animation editor, which allows the design and control of animation schemes. It
    supports the use of grouping to allow the creation of hierarchical structures
    for complex animations in a fast and easy manner. The evaluation of the algorithm
    is proven by a test scene, consisting of tens of thousands animated objects. '
