Advanced Visualization Instrumentation -- Jason Leigh

Increasingly, the nation’s computational science and engineering research communities work with international collaborators to tackle complex global problems. Just as cyberinfrastructure provides better access to greater volumes and varieties of data – from data storage systems, online instrumentation and/or major computational resources – advanced visualization instruments serve as the eyepieces of a telescope or microscope, enabling research teams and their students to view their data in cyberspace, and better manage the increased scale and complexity of accessing and analyzing the data.

The presentation provides an overview of the current state of the art in Advanced Visualization Instrumentation, the middleware used to drive them, and how they are being used to advance science and education.
