DALI: The Aleph Offline Event Display

DALI was written and is maintained by H.Drevermann

DALI is an event display program based predominantly on special linear and non linear projections of the radial and cylindrical structure of the detector and the event. Special 3D methods are employed that do not rely on conventional 3D smooth rotations. DALI avoids wire frames and minimizes the concept of data reduction to simplify the image. Concepts from cognitive psychology are employed to optimize projections and colouring.
