Coffee & Viz - Scaling Visualization Beyond Post-processing
Friday, February 17, 2017
9:30am to 10:30am
This event is part of the Coffee and Viz event series.
This image shows streamlines in a simulation of Earth's magnetosphere projected to the equatorial plane. The color is based on the magnitude of the ion flow speed. This image and others are computed in situ during the simulation for review afterwards.

Please note: Everyone is welcome to attend this program. However, this talk is geared towards scientific visualization practitioners and assumes some knowledge of that domain.
As high-performance computer (HPC) systems continue to grow larger and in new directions, memory and storage speeds have fallen significantly behind the amount of computation that can be performed. This is leading to new strategies for simulation where the visualization or analysis of the simulation domain is the only artifact saved to permanent storage. In this Coffee & Viz, David Thompson of Kitware will describe the trends causing these changes and illustrate several approaches to dealing with data at these scales through results that various groups have obtained using ParaView's Cinema and Catalyst tools.
