This paper is the literature bibliography on computer graphics in China in 2001. Graphics engineering is an inter-subject on studying graphical theory

graphical techniques and graphical application. Its research content covers almost all aspects of the human life

including industry

visualization

education

entertainment

et al. In the early beginning of 1990's

some new graphics techniques are derived from traditional computer graphics

they are virtual reality

visualization

physical based simulation. Based on the current status of the research on graphics engineering as well as the distribution of related publications in China

we began this literature overview work from 1996

we collected and classified most of important papers in computer graphics field in every year

selecting 290 references from 11 important Chinese journals published in 2001 and classified these references into different categories according to their contents. We hope that the paper could provide readers with a general and up-to-date overview of graphics engineering in China.
