Effective data format for scientific visualization

摘要: Data is the raw material of Visualization in Scientific Computing (ViSC). ViSC seeks to transform calculated or measured data into graphical forms better suited for interpretation. lifeblood any visualization system, and its representation must support structures appropriate scientific computing as well forms. This representation must also permit efficient transport storage. We discuss Flux, a general data format supported by apE, flexible environment developed at Ohio Supercomputer Center. Flux effectively represents grids, volumes, polygonal objects, images, motion paths, particles, other structures, which both portable compact. The suitable dynamic transport flow system. The has been designed with significant participation from community, will be compared with other representations currently use. implementation on wide variety mainframes workstations will presented,as series examples applications. shown to solution problems visualization.
