This book provides an overview of the emerging field of in situ
visualization, i.e. visualizing simulation data as it
is generated. In situ visualization is a processing paradigm
in response to recent trends in the development of high-performance
computers. It has great promise in its ability to access
increased temporal resolution and leverage extensive computational
power. However, the paradigm also is widely viewed as limiting when
it comes to exploration-oriented use cases. Furthermore, it
will require visualization systems to become increasingly complex
and constrained in usage. As research efforts on in situ
visualization are growing, the state of the art and best practices
are rapidly maturing. Specifically, this book contains chapters
that reflect state-of-the-art research results and best practices
in the area of in situ visualization. Our target audience are
researchers and practitioners from the areas of mathematics
computational science, high-performance computing, and computer
science that work on or with in situ techniques, or desire to
do so in future.Â
Visualization and analysis tools, techniques, and algorithms have
undergone a rapid evolution in recent decades to accommodate
explosive growth in data size and complexity and to exploit
emerging multi- and many-core computational platforms. High
Performance Visualization: Enabling Extreme-Scale Scientific
Insight focuses on the subset of scientific visualization concerned
with algorithm design, implementation, and optimization for use on
today's largest computational platforms. The book collects some of
the most seminal work in the field, including algorithms and
implementations running at the highest levels of concurrency and
used by scientific researchers worldwide. After introducing the
fundamental concepts of parallel visualization, the book explores
approaches to accelerate visualization and analysis operations on
high performance computing platforms. Looking to the future and
anticipating changes to computational platforms in the transition
from the petascale to exascale regime, it presents the main
research challenges and describes several contemporary, high
performance visualization implementations. Reflecting major
concepts in high performance visualization, this book unifies a
large and diverse body of computer science research, development,
and practical applications. It describes the state of the art at
the intersection of scientific visualization, large data, and high
performance computing trends, giving readers the foundation to
apply the concepts and carry out future research in this area.
