Putting Visualization First in Computational Steering
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper challenges the tradition that the part played by visualization within computational steering is limited purely to looking at output results, highlighting the potential of visualization to handle the input of simulation parameters as well. By considering the principles of humancomputer interaction that are involved in steering, it proposes a model which puts visualization first, rather than last, in the computational steering pipeline and demonstrates how such an arrangement may benefit both the user and the designer of computational steering systems. The potential of two projects, MPII and SuperVise, to contribute to the realisation of this model on the grid is described.

متن کاملCase Study: Resource Steering in a Visualization System
Visual computational steering environments extend traditional visualization environments by enabling the user to interactively steer the computations applied to the data. In this paper, we develop a new type of computational steering. “Resource steering” extends current visual steering techniques by providing machine resource estimation and control to the user. With resource steering, the user ...
متن کاملComputational Steering in Visualization Dataflow Environments
This paper traces the evolution of computational steering within visualization dataflow environments. In computational steering we integrate simulation and visualization into a single environment, in which the scientist can control the simulation on the basis of the visualization of the current results. This paper is essentially a review paper, in which we describe a number of projects with whi...
متن کاملRule-Based Visualization in a Computational Steering Collaboratory
In this paper, we introduce the concept of rule-based visualization for a computational steering collaboratory and show how these rules can be used to steer the behaviors of visualization subsystems. Feature-based visualization allows users to extract regions of interests, and then visualize, track and quantify the evolution of these features. Rules define high level user policies and are used ...
متن کاملSteering and Visualization of Electro-Magnetic Simulations Using the Globus Implementation of a Computational Grid
A framework for computational steering of a finite difference code for electromagnetic simulation has been developed and implemented. In computational steering we need to develop software which allows the user to enter an interactive visualization or VR environment and from there control the computation. A proof of concept implementation has been carried out using an existing code for 3D finite...
