Abstract
The benefits using 3D-visualization in the context of discrete-event simulation are scientifically proven and manufacturers of simulation software have been integrating advanced methods for 3D-visualization in their products for the past years. Despite these efforts the actual utilization of 3D-visualization in the context of discrete-event simulation remains unknown; experiences from university and service sector suggest that it is commonly not used. This article describes a questionnaire that queries the current situation, trends and thoughts about 3D-visualization in discrete-event simulation and presents its results. Especially differences in actual utilization, future plans and trends between small, mid-sized and large enterprises as well as between different branches of industry are worked out.
