From Big Data to Big Displays: High-Performance Visualization at Blue Brain
Blue Brain has pushed high-performance visualization (HPV) to complement its
HPC strategy since its inception in 2007. In 2011, this strategy has been
accelerated to develop innovative visualization solutions through increased
funding and strategic partnerships with other research institutions.
We present the key elements of this HPV ecosystem, which integrates C++
visualization applications with novel collaborative display systems. We
motivate how our strategy of transforming visualization engines into services
enables a variety of use cases, not only for the integration with high-fidelity
displays, but also to build service oriented architectures, to link into web
applications and to provide remote services to Python applications.Comment: ISC 2017 Visualization at Scale worksho
Using high resolution displays for high resolution cardiac data
The ability to perform fast, accurate, high resolution visualization is fundamental
to improving our understanding of anatomical data. As the volumes of data
increase from improvements in scanning technology, the methods applied to rendering
and visualization must evolve. In this paper we address the interactive display of
data from high resolution MRI scanning of a rabbit heart and subsequent histological
imaging. We describe a visualization environment involving a tiled LCD panel
display wall and associated software which provide an interactive and intuitive user
interface.
The oView software is an OpenGL application which is written for the VRJuggler
environment. This environment abstracts displays and devices away from the
application itself, aiding portability between different systems, from desktop PCs to
multi-tiled display walls. Portability between display walls has been demonstrated
through its use on walls at both Leeds and Oxford Universities. We discuss important
factors to be considered for interactive 2D display of large 3D datasets,
including the use of intuitive input devices and level of detail aspects
A review of data visualization: opportunities in manufacturing sequence management.
Data visualization now benefits from developments in technologies that offer innovative ways of presenting complex data. Potentially these have widespread application in communicating the complex information domains typical of manufacturing sequence management environments for global enterprises. In this paper the authors review the visualization functionalities, techniques and applications reported in literature, map these to manufacturing sequence information presentation requirements and identify the opportunities available and likely development paths. Current leading-edge practice in dynamic updating and communication with suppliers is not being exploited in manufacturing sequence management; it could provide significant benefits to manufacturing business. In the context of global manufacturing operations and broad-based user communities with differing needs served by common data sets, tool functionality is generally ahead of user application
