Abstract

Visualization is one of the most important applications of computer graphics. To have a parallel infrastructure for visualization, some technologies would be needed. We identify the state-of-the-art technologies that have prepared for building such an infrastructure and examine a collection of applications that would benefit from it. We consider a broad range of scientific and technological advances in visualization, which are relevant to visual supercomputing. Mainly, we present the original abstracts from the cited papers.
