The output from leading-edge scientific simulations is so voluminous and
complex that advanced visualization techniques are necessary to interpret
the calculated results. Even though visualization technology has progressed
significantly in recent years, we are barely capable of exploiting petascale
data to its full extent, and exascale datasets are on the horizon.
This
workshop aims at addressing this pressing issue by fostering communication
between visualization researchers and the users of visualization. Attendees
will be introduced to the latest and greatest research innovations in large
data visualization, and also learn how these innovations impact scientific
supercomputing and discovery process.
