Abstract:

This article covers particular visualization topic related to interactive scientific visualization of large-scale datasets. It offers brief introduction to modern widely used visualization software packages for large distributed data handling, briefly covers their functionality and usability while working with datasets that cannot be handled and visualized on a single PC. This article also illustrates the utilization of parallel algorithms for isosurface rendering and massless particle tracing in the visualization system RemoteView installed on top of computing cluster of Institute for Mathematical Modelling, RAS.
