3D Graphics & Viz

http://www.ccs.lanl.gov/ccs1/projects/Viz/pr-vtk.html Parallel visualization algorithms can simultaneously support handling much larger data sets than sequential counterparts, and improve interactivity. Distributed and distance algorithms address local area and wide area visualization. While both kinds of algorithms have similarities, "visualization at a distance" greatly affects the range of solutions. The ACL Visualization Team has been instrumental in the organization of the IEEE/ACM Parallel Rendering Symposium, the IEEE/ACM Parallel Visualization and Graphics Symposium, and the Eurographics Workshop on Parallel Graphics and Visualization. We have developed and published new parallel algorithms for software-based volume rendering, polygon rendering, image compositing, multiresolution wavelet encoding, and isosurface extraction.
